PLD don't use shield swipe on him they use shield bash. its a stun used on the GCD, other job stun have their own CD timer so pld can stun eruption better then war. but I think they added stun resistance to ifrit in 2.1 so im not sure anymore (haven't tried it since the patch)

Okay I'm level 50 I know what shield bash is. I'm just saying, in theory, using 1 Shield Swipe silences him for 6 seconds, and he'll have either Plume or Eruption queued up for when it ends. So right when the Pac ends, you'll get a surefire Shield Bash.

I guess im not sure why you are even using pacify, you are pointing out the problem with it. and I know there was stun resist before but I heard they added a shorter timer to it building. pre patch you could time it so you never get stun resist.

Also I was referring to garuda ex spiney plume. if mt gets 3 stacks he dies so ot usually takes it at 2, but I suppose anyone could. OP asked about offtank and I was just naming a few that require it.

You would use Pacify for about 3 reasons (assuming it works): 1. He can't use any skills during the six seconds. 2. Different DR than Stun. 3. ninety-nine percent chance that he will use an ability once it is over, this gives you time to prime yourself for a sure-fire cancel.
