All Bard party buff songs (except swiftsong) will put you on the agro list of any mob once you get into max range distance away. There doesn't need to be any other action or party hate. Sometimes I actually need to step out of the arena entry to pre cast Foe's to avoid accidentally pulling the boss.
No, they don't. I can run around in the overworld with Ballad/Paeon up and nothing cares. Run around with Requiem up though and I will aggro everything I pass by.

If the same thing happened with Indi-Poison GEO bubbles in FFXI (the first spell a geomancer gets), people would have considered that a big problem. Yet here in this game, nobody seems to bat an eye at it except me.

You know what's sad? It says it restores the TP of a party member. Since it doesn't work on yourself, it implies you are not a member of the party but rather...something else. Maybe a monster nobody likes, or a lesser being.
I took issue with that phrasing too. Same with Eye for an Eye.

PLD running out of TP is a joke, right? I mean, sure, maybe if you're an OT and reduced to the role of DPS because there are no adds for you to pick up. PLD shouldn't run out of TP during, actual, tanking. Weave some flash in, and save yourself from running out of TP and doing even less DPS.
Yes, rock that zero-damage Flash at that late point into the fight when hate should be firmly on you anyway.

Your post was a joke, right?
