Who would you rather heal? WAR or PLD?

Of course its subjective to the skill of the player, but I find PAL to be easier to heal than many WAR. My usual tank mostly plays PAL though so I am a little biased.

I hate war tanks lol , i much prefer to heal plds

I hate how war hp spikes.

Days ago, I'd kneejerk to Paladin. Every Warrior I played with would lose almost half their HP in one shot and get angry at me for it, when I'm skipping chances at Freecure just to keep them alive. Never had that with a Paladin. Warriors, to me, were terrible tanks.

I realize now it must have been a gear issue or how the player chose to handle hate. I played with a Warrior in my FC and they were fantastic: the first Warrior that didn't completely fail at "move out of the way when there is an attack coming."

After that, at level 49-50, I finally started to see great Warrior players. It seemed like 30-45 was filled with people not sure how to handle the role and getting mad at me for their learning process (or lack there of), forming my bias.

I still think Paladins are nicer due to personal preference, but if the tank knows how to dodge and combo the hate, it's cool. I love taking care of a tank who knows how to take care of everybody else.

As a whole, up to L.36 I much prefer Warrior tanks, I know how much damage they're taking and they seem to hold threat better. Paladins either tank no damage, or a lot of damage in my eyes and most of them are terrible at generating threat so far so I end up tanking mobs all the time.

Oh, final sting. How I hate thee.

My pocket tank is a paladin. He's pretty easy to heal as a WHM. So for lack of a better comparison, I'll say I prefer paladins.

I prefer PLD, while warriors are great with threat with sleep it's not an issue and PLD's health bars are easy to take care of and don't jump up and down like a WAR.

I've had really good warrior tanks, only 1 paladin tank for my instances raids and he was also excellent. I've also had a couple really bad warrior tanks, one of which couldn't handle the first pack of mobs in haukke manor, and then promptly left. We cleared the dungeon with me(SCH) and 2 DRGs tanking with no issues.

As I use SCH it is a rather difficult to pick. As stated earlier a WARs self HP spikes can get annoying but since Succor give the shield heal for the full amount or at all it still isn't a huge waste. I might say PLD though because the have an easier time at getting hate on multiple mobs at start of fights to keep them off my fairy which is currently bugged to pull hate on mobs even if she hasn't done anything. WAR can do this too but needs a bit more positioning to do it well and usually takes a bit more time. I have had both amazing and horrible players of both though so it is really hard. ><

WAR.

dat healing buff

As a SCH I think so far it has been much easier to heal GLA, their damage seems to be much less spikey. If I get behind on a WAR it is harder to catch back up.
