Provoke/Ultimatum is NOT a part of your rotation!!!!

[Duskane]

I'm not talking about swaps. I'm talking about an off-tank Provoking and then immediately Shirking the main tank to give the MT free enmity. That's not a swap.

I believe that is fairly common in 8-man content so that the MT doesn't have to do things like aggro combos or going into tank stance to keep the DPS from ripping aggro. I know my static's tanks have specific points in fights where the OT Provokes > immediately Shirks the MT purely so that our MT doesn't have to go into Defiance.

Thereby, it is part of a tank's rotation when there are not any upcoming swaps that would need an OT Provoke and an MT Shirk to the OT.

yes Provoke+ shirk is used to get a boost of aggro for MT
but its not apart of a rotation its be like saying Esuna or raise is apart of a healers rotation

heres a example of a rotation
