You have some shitty tanks or you start casting Fire III before the tank even pulls. (like so many BLMs do.) Try starting with Blizzard III->thunder II->Fire III , then you can unload on him while getting a free thunder in there. If may be less DPS at first but that beginning is where tanks establish hate. if youre fighting for it in the beginning then its harder for the tank to keep it. I dont have an issue with hate either way, but ive been a PLD since day 1, but there are alot of new tanks, especially WARs. You can help them by starting your BLM rotation with BIII->THII. Unfortunaltely, WAR is the "flavor of the month job" as more ppl are playing them since the patch. That being said they are mostly new ppl to tanking in general...
