Yes gear does help, but in the end it really relies on the skill of the tank and his/her experience with the job. I believe Miko from Dancing Mad was able to do the same thing using the normal Darklight DPS body. Though with that the enmity gain would be more based on damage dealt being that that would be higher.

    The nice thing about BLM is that they have 2 abilities that reduce enmity immediately, and Quelling strike that reduces the amount of enmity a blm would gain from the next spell. Blms who have known how much they're hate increases per spell based on playing with that same tank over and over will also learn a rotation of spells and abilities that will garuntee that they don't pull hate. When both parties BLM and Tank get into this routine then there shouldnt be much of a reason to pull hate ever. Don't forget the Collusion pull with maddening potion and maybe antagonize(?) stacked.

    It's not like Darth and I met last week and decided to do garuda >.>


    I do the same doing MNK burn on Miser. I've timed my combos so that I'll always have my Howling Fist up a couple seconds before his Collusion is ready. Keeps me in the yellow for most of that fight until the Str potion goes off and I climb back up to red.
    sorry im not sure how this relates to what i said?

    i dont care what gear you wear or what abilitys you use.

    im saying that there should be a system in place to stop DD going all out, emnity reduction abilitys like freeze, chameleon allow this to happen so maybe those abilitys should be changed.. and lets face it BLM is really the only job that has to worry about emnity which should tell you something about the state the other jobs are in.
