Sentinal is a thorn in our sides

I've said it several times, but that enmity on sentinel makes me nervous. Assuming I'm not tanking, I'm gonna try decoy first.

Well I can't speak for Moogle, but at least in the case of the Ifrit, most people save Sentinel for an ill-timed eruption/plume or Hellfire. Out those 15 seconds, somehow I doubt you'll be doing anything for half of them due to movement or waiting for the Hellfire animation to finish and having Ifrit re-positioned.

Ideally that's how things will go down, but what about when a DD forgets to pop sentinel and needs a heal? It's not uncommon for that to happen.

On paper it looks like we'll still fare ok because of all the hate grabbing abilities that GLA has now, but what if they look better on paper than in reality?

We make our DD heal themselves.

So do we to an extent, hellfire is an exception.

The enmity bonus probably won't matter. Just as it doesn't matter with barrage, and storms path, and everything else that you do mid-fight after the tank has already built up more enmity than he will ever need.

Assuming you're right it's business as usual. I'm just going to assume though that things have changed drastically as far as abilities are concerned unless it's proven to me otherwise when the patch drops.

There's nothing that indicated that hate mechanics have changed at all. Previous changes to hate mechanics have been mentioned in the notes before.

But anyway, we'll see.
