If it's Ridill and hitting enough it'd probably get more hate though.
    looks like dissector to me<.<

    even with plds some over zealous blms like to tank seiryu at the end<.< then they boast about it>.> even though the entire alliance was spamming them with cures<.<

    its a dissector i used for spirits within lol
    like i said, this was actually one of the worse ones i've done. i've been doing this for over a year and we've beome confident in my ability to tank so sometimes the blms go a bit over board. also, frapsing and taking screenshots while tanking made it more difficult. i've done ones (like earlier that night) where i dont get hit at all, and hold hate through the whole fight so its really just a matter of experience and a little luck

    YEAH! How dare you try and have fun in this game! That is not what it was meant for! How could you dishonor the creators and use a job a different way then most people use it, and believe it was intended for! What is the matter with you?!?!?!?!
    I only ridiculed the hate management which from a BLMs perspective is no fun at all when your getting your taru ass slapped around by a God because your tank couldn't hold hate.

    One mans fun should not come at the cost of anothers.

    I'm merely pointing out theres nothing to boast about since tanking actually requires you to maintain the mobs attention. What the OP did in this video while maybe fun for him, it sure as hell wasn't a very good tanking job.

    Yeah i'm sorry, that guy is so right. Use PLD's and NIN's for everything, they never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever have ever lost hate not even once on anything anywhere in ffxi, right? 100% garunteed not to lose hate, right?

    Who cares if someone dies, especially to a god lol. HUEG xp loss right? I rather have fun and try new things, and different things. Rdm/nin on faf is still my favorite.

    This is reason enough for me. My ranged accuracy plummets whenever I equip a Zephyr.

    That's pretty neat ^^

    What kind of gear setup were you using? Evasion primarily with some enmity and haste? (Looked like Barbarossa's Zerehs but couldn't tell from the lighting)

    Same thing here, and I thoroughly lol'd as he swapped in Shinimusha Hara-ate.
    the sam that melees in osode and rutters is worse in my book


    anyway... this looks like fun but stuff like this is only fun for the person who does it. Especialy as thf "tank" you have like no hate management so all other melees have to do the work for you so you don't loose hate

    Looks like a Dissector to me.
