    Kind of seeing this "limited thinking" over and over again in this thread and others. Why should everyone have to level MNK or NIN to tank something if they already have PLD as an option. PLD isn't worthless. it just lacks the advantages given to DD's since the 75 cap was removed. PLD can tank, although it may be slower due to damage dealing limits. People are entitled to their choices of jobs. And of course there is situations that require a different approach to be optimal.. but that doesn't mean everything has to be done in a pre-determined strategy.

    If ur a good player.. then using PLD as an option won't matter. there is going to be some work involved on any hard mob. and if the mob isn't hard.. then why argue who tanks better? Either you work for it.. or you want Easy button fights... for that matter i would just toss BST at it and go grill a steak while my pet does the work for me.

    Outside of abyssea has changed in only the aspect that players have higher base stats and higher skill caps than before with the same mobs/stats. SE will either come around and re-balance it.. or we will have to deal with DD jobs that have reached a level of "too much power".

    Don't forget that the level penalty is gone or no longer a big issue as most HNMs are Even Match at best level wise now. Considering a lot of gear from Sky, Land Kings, etc is beaten by Emp +1 and SE said that even with Synergy upgrades at best you'd match Emp+1 I highly doubt they will waste time re-balancing old content.
