whats going to happen to PLD

So only Pld has access to PDT/MDT sets, okay.

Shadows? What are those?

They're those weird things that mimic us and follow us around if we go outside when the sun is out. :(

They almost always aggro, and are quite hard to zone.

They're scary. :(

You can't bring friends either, because they'll each aggro one. >_<

Pet jobs' pets also aggro them too.

Having to use a PLD and a DRK put together instead of just getting a single WAR is an absolute waste, especially when that one WAR would probably outdamage both the DRK and PLD combined.

I already said before SE doesn't balance classes, its obvious that a Warrior has more damage potential then a Paladin. You can still play whatever job you want probably be better then 90-95% of the people if you work really hard on the gear. Some people don't want to reroll other classes and want to play what they have. FFXI is such a joke now that doesn't even matter what job you take. You can duo most anything with 1 melee and 1 whm. If PLD is the only job you really play who really cares.

This I will agree with, especially the portion about being better than most of the population. Regardless of this though, it doesn't change how good PLD itself actually is. If the person were to level a different job they'd likely perform better. If they have no desire to level another job, however, they will be limited in abilities because PLD itself is limited, regardless of how good they may or may not be. But in this case, the person in question shouldn't try to advocate the usage of PLD in the larger population, at least as far as how useful or good the job is, since it's the person in the chair who is good, not the job.

Give PLD a job trait that grants +10% to their non volatile enmity cap and +15% to their volatile enmity cap by lvl 90.
