Um.. why does WAR *need* to be equal to PLD? It's a hybrid job it's not supposed to be a pld clone. If we had 3 tanks should they all be equal? Is NIN equal to PLD in XI?

I think you guys are missing the point.. Warrior is an awesome job, you should feel good about it being one because you can do a lot of things a PLD can't and as content becomes more varied you will see that.
