Always good to know the reason PLDs are unpopular in Abyssea, is because SMN is stealing the tanking role. Thanks, you made my day. Anything else profound and intelligent to add?

As stupid and unrealistic as it is, the AOE collaborator idea is pretty awesome. The WS one seems a bit weird but functions better if the AOE collaborator isn't alliance wide. Maybe they could give PLD a JA like provoke with a 30 second recast timer, and instead of increasing PLDs enmity gain it lowers everyone elses hate on the mobs hate list by 10% or something? I could get behind that. You would need some way for it to not affect cotanks though, maybe other PLDs would be immune to it or something, I dunno, but it sounds like a coding nightmare and is very unrealistic.

Make Cover a Job Trait with a 75% or higher proc rate. PLD fixed.

I kind of miss that from the past. It was an interesting build.

I would approve of this if Shield Bash became the regular attack. Though that would still make PLD useless in Abyssea since you can't proc while the mob is stunned but then again I don't care if I can't use PLD in abyssea.

Ochain fixed PLD. Actually kinda broke it.

This is my suggestion further down the post.

Wouldn't an ability like collaborator that you could plant on a DD so that the next WS the DD dealt became PLD's hate and the DD's hate went down by a percentage of the damage? DDs would be more able to deal greater damage, they would have to cooperate with the tank and PLD would have a way to keep the Mob in check. I'm sure I'm missing something and will go down in blazes, but it sounds good to me within my caffeine-induced high...
