This is not accurate? Again I use provoke when I raid because there is always some noob prematurely nuking... Not routinely, for instance, when I do coil with my static...
This is accurate sometimes yes, and it's fine. You use provoke as you need to to regain control. That's what it's there for.

Point still stands: there's nothing I can do that you cannot, and I don't have this issue, so unless you're being outgeared it's something to do with the efficiency of your rotation.
