FFXIV Sword & Board Tanking: A Different Kind of Beast (Long)

[Alerith]

As a Paladin:

[Single Target (like a Primal)]: Shield Lob when in range, Spirits Within as you run through your target, then Shield Lob again as you come out to the back of where they are. Now your healers and DD have to fight against all the damage you did, plus the augmented enmity from Shield Lob. This is more than enough to lock in Hate and get your first Rage of Halone Combo off.

[Multi-Target (Like a trash pull)]: Shield Lob your primary target. When all other targets are in range, use Flash, Circle of Scorn, Flash, Spirits Within your main target, then Flash again. Now begin your usual combo. The Flashes will give you the buffer you need.

In this game, the tanks have no “I Own Aggro” button

I need no such button. I always own aggro.
