    I'm not a warrior so I'm pretty ignorant about how that job keeps hate on big pulls. I do play PLD, though, and I have no trouble keeping hate on big pulls without access to an effective, TP based crowd enmity skill like overpower. Circle of scorn is a bit of a joke being so weak (even with the recent enmity boost), long recast and small diameter of effect.

    In big pull AOE situations, I don't worry about damage at all, just enmity. I Flash until MP gets low then fast blade / riot blade / Flash until about 3 mobs are left at which time I can rotate among the 3 with normal attacks (Fast - Savage - Rage) or continue with FB / RB to build MP back up for the next pull.

    With War having access to Flash, they have both an MP based crowd enmity skill and the TP based skill. They don't get a way to recover MP but when MP gets low but can use the TP based Overpower while MP recovers, then go back to Flash while TP recovers. Rinse and repeat.

    So, in that scenario, why does WAR need Goad, unless they are focusing on dealing damage rather than enmity control?

    As I said, I'm pretty ignorant about how the job is played.
