    So doing CM runs and I noticed this tank with I guess better gear kept using Rage of Halone should I just straight up start doing that whatever I'm fighting no matter where I am or still do the Fast Blade-Savage Blade then Rage of Halone?

    In short: He's doing it wrong.

    Rage of Halone by itself is pretty decent to use when you need threat at that very second and not a second after (i.e, you just died and you got raised, and just provoked). The Halone Combo provides far better threat over time.

    Is it possible to advance in relic quest without a decent shield? I've done so many runs in WP (lost count after 11th) and didn't see shield drop a single time. Also I'm on a fresh server, so the highest ilvl of a shield available on the market for the past week is in mid 40 - i have a ilvl43 shield myself.

    Dunno whether I should grind WP till it makes me quit this game (:P) or I can just push the quest onward till I get my Holy Shield & maybe get a lucky drop from Titan...?

    I got lucky and went from rotten round shield to holy shield+1. It's possible, but I was in mainly darklight gear. I did maybe 10 WP to try for the shield but ended up doing well over 70 AK runs to get tomes and hopelite.

    spamming halone is ez mode for well geared tanks in cm.. it provides immediate threat so is ideal for spamming flash on aoe.. the combo over the long run is good but if you are opening on aoe groups tabbing through with halone/flash will keep agro every time.

    The only time you should not combo your halone is if its in your provoke macro and you are trying to get a lead to start doing halone combos. Also maybe if you weren't aware of an add spawn and you just need to get it on you to start halone comboing. Other than that the person you grouped with was not playing to his full potential.

    Yeah I've figured I'll aim for the same outcome, I'm stuck on rotten round shield myself too

    Canopus Kite Shield from Aurum Vale is the next best. Get a Vintage Kite Shield from the Market if all else fails. The Shield doesn't matter much until Titan, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't inches from death from him a few times during the final phase.

    Found it: http://xivdb.com/?item/2292/Canopus-Shield thanks, maybe I'll have more luck with it.

    On unrelated (fairly) note: are primals still hard, or were they maybe nerfed/ppl got a hang of them? I'll be doing an approach to them in a couple of days, but I didn't have the time to view any serious guides (besides Ifrit). Ofc I'm asking about PLD point of view (I'm a bit worried about getting stuck on stunbot duty, it's always been my weak side tbh).
