    Yes, I have all that. My gear is as follows:

    Bravura
    HDL Armor
    Cobalt Plate Belt (Enmity +42)
    HDL Flanchard
    HDL Gauntlets
    White Ravens
    Militia Choker
    Coral Armillae +1
    Electrum Ring +1 x2

    That's my tank loadout. My point was that if I swap out even like Enmity+10 on wrists (I said earring before but I meant wrist, same difference), and if I don't hit my rotation perfectly, my BLMs pull hate. At this point they all have relics as well and they are all riding my ass for enmity on this battle. I definitely cannot afford to skip provoke/flash like you claim you can.

    Dunno, I've always done it this way since AV was introduced. I never lose hate unless it's after AI and blms are not paying attention.

    Collusion flare at the start?

    I always straight tank this fight on PLD. Deal with 100tonze swipe by run through, 100 tonze swing with divine veil / aegis / sentinel / rampart / hallowed. Never doubling them up of course. self healing a lot. done plenty of 90 second kills whilst working on relic.

    I open with a flash/voke but never use it again unless AI, if he doesnt AI, I dont use them.
    (note: im happy to hallowed ground in this fight as I tank miser on WAR for extra DD)

    Gonna put some emphasis on this part here.

    Do NOT be afraid to use Hallowed Ground on Coincounter. Chances are that if you have to use it on Mistress, then you're party is already doomed in the speed run.

    7 monk 1 paladin miser gogo.

    (You probably wouldn't even need Hallowed Ground for that though).

    I've done 17min AVs as paladin a couple times but I really don't think it's worth it. It's fun and effective on coincounter but on miser and for the dungeon overall I think warrior is better (at least with monks on miser). For one thing, Warrior doesn't have to block for its biggest hate move, so stuns won't delay your spirits. Go in with some decent damage stats/enmity and it works out fine.

    Also all this stuff gets flushed down the terlet in 3 weeks so whatever.

    Speed runs yes, the dungeon itself no.

    The same strategies may still be usefull to spam the dungeons for gear tokens or whatever they end up using.

    On paladin this is easy to be honest.
    i just start of with the usual rotation to spirits within then hold on abilities so i can eat his 100t swing,
    You can spam flat blade combo for hate and then just act according to his swing,100t swing pop aegis or divine veil and outmaneuver save and then wait again, if again use sentinel etc rampart etc all allows a pld to eat a swing relatively easy,
    on glower self heal for hate and then just watch,if he spam swing and hes not dead and you run our of cds pop hallowed ground.If he uses hate reset then just pop voke flash ,make sure the blms dont nuke for a few seconds until you have spirits on him again or flat combo and go again,

    its just all about timing your abilities but really once you learn them you can just face tank him pretty easy,

    Tried this yesterday (compared to dodging 100 Ton etc)
    It actually worked pretty good, and you can just spam WS's and heals to keep hate up.
    Coin Counter went down so fast anyways, you don't need to use all your Damage Reduction buffs.

    I posted previously about too much Enmity causing Animal Instinct to proc as well. Since practicing for Time Attack runs, my group does really good damage, and even going all out on PLD for building Enmity it wasn't forcing CC to do Animal Instinct.

    (like it was before if I went all out, he would Animal Instinct within the first few seconds. Then continue to spam Animal Instinct)

    ...So I do think it's possible that if your party (or as a % overall) is too far below your hate then Animal Instinct will proc, the same way as if your party is too close to your hate.
