    Edited precious post a smidge but here's the important parts.

    0 sec (1st strike) OP 900 threat
    2.5 sec 1320. Heavy
    5.0 sec 1800. Maim
    7.5 sec 2973. Eye
    10 sec 349. Heavy
    12.5 sec 5565. Sunder
    15 sec 10887. BB

    you strike 1st with 900 enmity pot with unbuffered OP. No one can take that off you in 1 gcd. Impossible. 1320 after heavy, 1800 after maim. That's your mist vulnerable point after op, before eye. You should have 1 gcd advantage over dps because you hit 1st obviously. That's 3 gcds for you, and 2 to 2.5 for everyone else. What can a dps do in the space of 2.5 gcds that pushes 1800 pot? Let's say 1500 after you account for higher acc, parry, and lower str on war fear. Remember this is no warm up.

    A mnk can pop PB and land demo and 2 snaps. Not enough by a mile.
    Blm, even with timed thunder 3 landing as you pull is just F3, fire 1 and a thunder tick. Nope.
    Drg HT, ID, Dis. Nope.
    Smn? Lawl.
    Bard? Straight shot, 2 dots. Nope.

    After this point you have a super buff eye that lands which is enough cement in your zerk ed up unchained state for for 2 more gcds when sunder lands and then nothing can take it from you.

    Most tanks loose hate after tomahawk/lob. There's a reason you start with OP. OP is 900 threat(in defiance) before maim and other buffs. Toma is a crappy 585 in defiance. So yeah, Toma to heavy to maim sucks and that's when tanks loose it. OP and str gear is what gives you the wiggle room to pull this off.

    Vit hero's with toma/lob are gonna loose hate. More str, more OP.

    Regardless, Wars should be opening with OP. If they are struggling maintaining hate with Xeno's opener then just use Unchained before you OP and you are golden.
