PLD is very very competitive in AE enmity. In fact, they are pretty much undisputedly the WP speed-run preferred tanks, as they can sustain AE enmity output much longer than WAR. MYS could still USE flash, but it would hurt them to do so.

PLDs aren't the kings of WP speed runs because they have great AoE enmity. They're the kings of it because they have a *way* better CD suite. I've done speed runs as a WAR and, when I'm Overpower spamming, it doesn't matter how hard the BLM is nuking, they're not pulling off of me. As a PLD, if the BLM doesn't use Quelling Strikes before a double/triple Flare, everything will be staring at them. The only reason that WAR isn't the preferred tank for them is the CDs since, if they *could* survive the same pulls, the fact that WAR throws out damage while keeping AoE enmity would make them *way* better than PLD.

PLD vs WAR

I didn't say PLD is better because it has better AE Enmity, I said it has competitive AE Enmity, and as such, is the preferred tank (read: due to that and other factors).
