The Rescue Skill Has to Go

[TheForce]

I'm a PLD at raid level, thanks very much, a quick glance at my lodestone would tell you that. Shirk is an ability that gives 25% of your aggro to target party member, forcibly manipulating their enmity against their will. I could use it to kill party members who I didn't like if I were MT. A quick shirk, death, voke.

I like how vague, yet patronising, your comment is "you are wrong, I won't tell you why, but please stop posting until you have learned to tank".

Exactly, only 25%. Meaning once a good amount of aggro is established, if you shirk somebody, they're not getting full aggro, so nothing would even happen. Shirk is not a "instant main aggro switch" button, you are just sharing a bit of your aggro with someone else. Whereas with Rescue, it will ALWAYS do something, and that something is controlling someone else's character
That's on a whole other level from Shirk. The two are not the same.
