You use enmity combos as much as you need to hold hate when you tank, the goal being to use them as little as possible. But if you were just to do the initial hit and spam dps combos no matter what, you'd watch yourself lose hate.
    False, even as a OT tank I have taken hate away from main tank using OT stance stance, or using non enmity combos. DRG / NIN /MNK and most jobs can easily over power a tanks dmg ratio if they are competent enough with their job and properly geared if tank is not using tank stance.

    Even in normal raids some tanks really can't do their job and while DPS uses different enmity values it can tank a mob or two compare to poor tank experience players.
