As far as I know, RDMs who wanted to tank HNMs needed awesome gear, shell out large amounts of money, and needed to prove themselves worthy of the task. If anything, abusing CE gains through enfeebling spells was the least exploitable out of anything, and even so, that doesn't mean it was bad.
    Wouldn't it have been better to give RDM the means to actually (if only passably) tank instead of having to abuse CE from enfeebles to get the job done? Not to mention the gear you speak of, to my recollection, included a set to become completely immune to spell interrupts. Which was probably an oversight by the devs just like the old haste cap and the old TP floor.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line.
