Warriors do more damage and have alot more aoe capability, you will see bosses in the future where a pld and war are best together not a pld and a pld. I dont need another pld with me i would like a warrior. You dont need 2 chicken scratchers running around, a warrior hits a hell of alot harder.
So you're in BC with Ifrit weapon and white Jewelry? No Relic? Not even garuda weapon? If you can manage with that kind of gear it should set off some obvious bells. No way a WAR would be able to touch Binding Coil with your level of gear. Hell, they probably would have a hard time with titan in that gear.

"AoE capacity" doesn't matter, considering there isn't a single fight where "aoe" threat matters. And even if there ever is one, a PLD will be better able to survive while tanking it - the paltry 100 damage aoe that WAR can contribute for 140 TP isn't enough to matter anyway.

Also you are wrong on the damage. At best a warrior has a slight advantage (~5-10% depending), and at worst is at a disadvantage (while not tanking a PLD will put out more dmg than a WAR, unless Sword Oath is bugged, in which case WAR will again be ahead by ~2-4%).
