"You are bad at using Provoke"

[Delorean]

So, please, how would you explain it?

Don't use Provoke to initiate combat. If you think about enmity, or monster hate and assign a number value to it, for example saying that you have 100 Enmity on a Monster and a BLM has 150 Enmity on a Monster, when you use Provoke, you will have 151 Enmity on that monster.

So only use it when you have lost aggro and need it back right away or have an ability like Skull Sunder, Butcher's Block or Overpower ready to immediately add an additional enmity lead to your Provoke.

I think that's about as concise as it'll get.
