XIV WAR Tanking - Baseline Mitigation and PLD comparison

[CurlyBruce]

My secondary is SMN, another underdog job... so maybe I just enjoy cheering for a "losing team"?

Since when was SMN an underdog job....SMN is ridiculously good and I haven't seen anyone who actually knows how to play well say otherwise.

Turn 3 here I come. ^_^

I await your response where you try to argue for WARs superiority because you did fine in Turn 3 coil, even though Turn 3 is literally nothing but trash mobs and doesn't even have a boss.

Just keep raising that bar and I'll keep going over it. ^_^

Bahamut and WAR
Maybe the biggest problem we have in Bahamut is that we still face to problems as if we have to face to super high monster DPS. .

Right what WAR tanks have to do is try to overcome this issue. There's two ways to do this, 1 way which has already met success is raising HP as high as possible. People say for Turn IV you need at least 7500. But mitigation still needs to be done. My next goal is to reach that high number and simultaneously raise my mitigation and damage output. I'm not sure how high I'll be able to do on damage of course, but it's obvious already that it's needed.

Unless you are somehow hotloading coding into the game I doubt you can do either of those things.

Technically there was no time limit mentioned, so "waiting for the 2.1 patch in order to get Crystal Tower gear" might count...

And there's always a little room for a little more practice.

Yeah well you can have your full AF+1 by the time CT is out so...

A Paladin will ALWAYS beat a Warrior in terms of eHP and survivability.
At the moment if they are both in full iL90 gear, Paladin is ahead, going into crystal tower gear which is iL80 gear won't change it unfortunately.

Its just a result of design.
Warrior needs some sort of actual lasting mitigation.
