How are warriors after 2.1?

Again I fail to see the relevance of any of this. You were addressing WAR/PLD threat gen and started talking about sword oath. If either tank is competing for aggro then sword oath is completely off the table....

Second if a PLD is dpsing it seems moronic to spam ROH while in sword given the changes. Its the same as a WAR not in defiance spamming BB. Its just not smart. Use as many RoH as you can but choosing to continue to do so at the risk of aggro is just silly.

And the alternative for a PLD is... riot spam? They don't have a low threat combo option like WAR does. And even their "DPS stance" (sword oath) now has an increased enmity component (god only knows why).

Almost positive his context for Sword Oath is WAR MT (defiance) vs. PLD OT (sword oath) for threat. In that scenario the WAR may run into some issues, and very likely won't be able to hold threat with just SP->SE->BB. Which is a valid point.
