    I dont get how people say paladin generates enough hate when it clearly doesn't. on a war i have so much free time i can type long assed messages in linkshell or party chat pretty much ignore flash and voke after the first use (maybe hit them if i miss a cyclone combo). and still be a ridiculously solid tank generating a ridiculous amount of emnity and keeping hate easily.

    as a paladin i can spam the living hell out of everything, holy succor myself as much as mp permits. everyone else is usually to far away to cast on them, and still not generate a comfortable level of hate that lets the dds have room to breathe. even the regen from divine veil fails cos noones ever in range to get it and it doesn't effect the one person that needs it most.

    yes flat blade has a 4.5 mod but it hits for next to nothing on anything that matters and 4.5 x nothing is still nothing. skull sunder also has an emnity bonus for combo and it hits alot harder + has a steel cyclone desert.

    i can spam every ability keep everything on cool down and still generate less emnity than a warrior. now you may lol at my ability spam fest but i'm pretty sure that flash/voke generate a static emnity value. which kinda negates timing (outside of stuff that has hate reset) in ifrit, something everyone is common with for example. if i flash after a swipe or flash after eruptions it makes no difference to the emnity boost. so keeping it on cooldown is pretty much all you can do.

    still with respect to the topic at hand and the op's changes if they give pld a defensive buff fix shileds and have more sustainable mp regen would make holy succor a much more viable hate tool.
