XIV WAR Tanking - Baseline Mitigation and PLD comparison

[Viridiana]

So, Javid, your defence is essentially "I want to be carried, because my class is bad and I want the healers to work for it."

Why should the rest of the community cater to that?

My "defense" was I disagree that Warrior; has to be "carried" through content. I simply made a correction to his saying. IFF we "warriors" were being carried THROUGH end-game (titan+ beyond content as main tank). This would still demonstrate that the WArrior Party is showing more effort, focus, resolve, than that of a similar PLD group.


The community as a WHOLE doesn't want any ONE thing....or we'd not be having this thread page 4 (of the infinite WAR vs PLD comparison)......so community is divided on what they want.

I don't have anything higher than Titan to boast about personally. I've tank Titan at 6.2k HP & at 7.1k;

LET ME TELL YOU.....THAT 6.2K; you can make NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO mistakes; none; Healers included

After Titan phase 5 does his bomb formation he's coming for you and if you weren't smart enough to start buidling your hp pass 5500 for the 800 punch he'll do, followed by rock buster(left hand bitch slap) for 1k+ then the 4.5k mountain in your face.... you dead.... that simple.

my healers were experience both times so it was fun and exciting for everyone in party who was thrill that defeated Titan with a WAR main.

FYI: Mountain in your face is on a minute rotation; you can IBx3 by then to help mitigate the dmg.


yes yes you're still taking dmg from tumult and 2 other 800 dps ; but this is why it's key you absorb the proper HP at the right time. For example I never use Conval with Wrath 15%; that is excessive; and should only be done if you are about to get that MOUNTAIN SLAP and you need that 5.5k HP NOOOOOWWWWWW!!
