Now of course no on can prove anything here but to say SE could fck up some code is highly possible.

You know, I thought they just modified Shield Oath and Defiance, but it looks like they did increase enmity generation for Steel Cyclone (forgot it didn't have it before), and it says they increased Overpower enmity generation, as well.

I play both WAR and PLD, and I typically avoid running PLD in dungeons flat out because of lack of AoE hate tools. I mean flash works OK, but it's got nothing on Berserk/Unchained/Overpower spam.

Personally I think the amount of hate generated isn't a problem, but one thing the reddit thread discussed interest me - that hates seems to be updated too slowly.

This is something which I think I personally experienced. Engaged a new mob with a combo'd BB, or a pack of mob with overpower. Enmity bar shows "A" and enemy list have their icons listed as a square red which means I am the aggro holder. But these mobs still charged for the DPS/healer and took like 1-2s before coming back to me, which in all these while I am STILL the aggro holder

Not very frequently but it is just irritating when it happens.. made me look like a fool/noob tank
