XIV WAR Tanking - Baseline Mitigation and PLD comparison

[dandelions]

You can just see HiirNoivl and Lhun's mind's melting in this thread... unable to grasp situations and context outside their immediate surroundings, trying to make points that have already been blatantly and preemptively contradicted by the original post which is supported by simple logic and math. Love how they throw in personal conclusions based neither facts or testing, but on wild theories in their head supported by delusions of self importance and grandeur.

Using every CD at your disposal perfectly along with the best possible gear in game at the moment will not net you the returns of a straight 20% damage reduction. While talking about raids and end game content and current scaling of incoming boss dmg vs outgoing player dmg: there's a wall, as long as mechanics stay the same, Paladin will always be noticeably superior progression tanks, while Warriors (depending on gear/content level) will generally be the superior "Farm Status" tank.

This is a problem for most players who rolled a Warrior and want to be involved with end game content.
