    Have you tried doing a set amount of dmg say 1k, then poping antagonize. Follow that with a 2nd player trying to AA up enough dmg to pull hate, see if hate is pulled at 1,001 dmg? or 1,151 (assuming you gain 15% more enmity on already incurred actions). I hope your correct but I highly doubt it.

    Depends what I'm tanking.

    For wolf camp I:

    Aggro everything > Do sentinel, rampart, or collusion > steel cyclone combo > win> repeat

    For ifrit I:

    Antagonize > Provoke > Flash > steel cyclone combo > repeat as cooldowns are up

    Yes I know I am missing out on a lot of abilities I could use for hate generation, but I find I don't really need them.

    I base this on the situation I get in dungeons sometimes: I agro all mobs just by running around (blinking red), whm throws buffs on me and gets hate (colors of mobs goes to yellow, green), I use Antagonize and hate goes back up to red-ish.

    Not a proper test, just something I see happening.

    This is because Antagonize is a self-buff and incurs a small amount of enmity upon usage. At that point in time, the proportional amount of enmity is so low that one self-buff can shift your enmity by a substantial percentage.
