Not always ^^
Did a few "Expert roulette" this weekend, ended up with a BLM, a DRG and a WHM in Brayflox. That was the toughest run I've ever made as a PLD. The BLM did 3 flares in less than 20seconds while the DRG was focusing one single ennemy. The WHM spammed Holy as usual.
I spammed Flash like a crazy, ran out of MP and starting the Halone combo on DRG's target to be sure he won't get hate (but it died before I finished it). A few seconds later... I saw "Holy" and "Flare" on the cast bars and was like "Oh Gods help me now !". Lost 3 targets but luckily they died shortly after.
That was the first time I was scared that I would be flamed by the 3 other members, I lost hate on several ennemies I was ready to be kicked instead they just apologize for the fireworks. Got 3 commendations on that run

A good result for a stressful run but obviously if a DPS wants the hate he will have it.
