All of these arguments seem to make a statement along the lines of "A warrior can do everything a PLD can do until it can't..." Now I suppose there might be some sort of argument to be made on a class to class basis for a small DPS change on grinding dungeons. Though those arguments ignore healer mana loss, requirements for higher gear on group DPS, and the fact that it has no effective difference on group outcome.

What I find really interesting is that the need for a warrior rework seems to be supported by paladins, healers the devs and it seems to be largely the warrior community that continues to speak against a change. I don't think I have ever been in a community were everyone is calling for a class buff except for the class that is getting buffed.

P.S. If you're assessing your class strengths off of AK and Prae runs I would suggest that you might be completely missing the point by about 100 miles.
