Summoner - The whining needs to stop.

To maintain a good hate lead on the MNK, we need to rocking RoH combo as fast as possible while still trying to weave flash and CoS into the mix. I would suggest you actually level GLD/PLD before you start spouting about how "easy" something is that you have no idea about.

OH HAI I R HAVE LEVELD TEH PALAXADIN TO TEH MAXEZ. I HAZ TEH RELIX AND ONE, TEH SHINY COAT AND TIARA AND EVEN TEH ALLAGANNZZZZ

Yes, it is. It scales with gear, but it's perfectly fine at holding AoE aggro. Again, don't flash 1, 2, or even 3 times and think that's OK.

Kevee, as usual when it comes to smn party mechanics, is completely correct. Flash is extremely potent. If you burn down your mp pool on flash and keep cos on coold own (which, ps, is used between gcd's so there is no "weaving" you just use it, when ever, regardless of what skilsl you are using), you won't loose threat against single or mulit target. If one single target dps is givng you problems, you can easily go 3 flashes -> fast blade -> savage -> flash -> rage -> flash. Flash doesn't interrupt our combos for a reason. You can also use spirits on the main target to help out.

Flash is based on weapon damage, so if your relix are teh one plus, its very strong. This is why paladins have no problem in turn 4 bug phases or WP speed runs.

If you are loosing threat on trash mobs so early in the fight ita ctually matters (ie above 5% hp) then that's on you. Regardless of what your dps are doing in terms of single target or aoe. You have the tools to build adequate hate over the spreadable dots (its really not that much dps. No festers, no ruins, etc on the off targets.)
