XIV WAR Tanking - Baseline Mitigation and PLD comparison

[Terabyt3]

All this is raw data and has nothing to do with actual testing in a fight. Just would like to say that nobody has beaten Twintania, so that's just out the window for now. As far as Turn 4 is concerned, you have to know WHEN to pop your defensive GCD's and when to use your offensives, it's just that simple. All this spread sheet stuff does nothing. WAR is NOT a mitigation tank like PLD is, but it does not mean we don't have defensive abilities to use at PROPER timing. That is why WAR takes skill and the reward for that is more DMG output for the group overall.

The only difference is PLD is proactive, war is reactive. The dps is the same.

PLD mitigation scales WARs does not. To say any different is just a lie.
