In Light of the WAR 2.1 Adjustments, Can We Expect Tweaks to PLD as Well? My Thoughts

[Marleytiva]

I see plenty of Warriors decked in Coil gear. Excluded from what content? Not like Duty Finder gives a fuck whether you're a War or Pal, and if an FC has been denying Warriors a role in their group for three months were they really worth your time? Right now you're proposing equaling another tanking role with absolutely nothing to compensate on a Paladin when they are not in that role. How many weeks do you think an FC is going to be happy with wiping on a damage-check phase like Extreme Titan Heart when they have a Warrior tank and a Paladin whacking away with it with pitiful Savage Blade Halone combos? Not long, believe it. Do you think this will be the last of checks like this? Look, I get it. Warriors should be able to tank, but being that much better at everything brought to the tank slot table is a bit extreme without looking at the literal chinks in the Paladin's armor.

All of my Warrior's Coil gear was obtained with my Paladin (every Warrior I know leveled one). It was just much easier on the rest of my group that I bite the bullet and level Paladin. You said yourself that they're (WAR) being equalized so why would Paladin need some kind of compensation? We already have Sword Oath and if we're off-tanking (I wouldn't use the Duty Finder though), I'll throw some different gear on and DD just like I did on my Warrior. The rest of your post is just more over-exaggeration.
