warrior vs pld for solo gameplay

[Kitru]

For soloing, drop Defiance since it reduces your damage.

Only if you're fighting single enemies. If you're fighting multiple enemies, stay in Defiance for Steel Cyclone.

In a general sense, WAR is better for soloing since you bring legitimate self heals along with more ST *and* AoE damage so that you have less downtime and faster kills.

^ This. Thinking about it and I really cant think of any advantage that PLD has over WAR for Solo'ing. Outside of Mitigation, which isnt as important when solo'ing since mobs dont hit hard

WAR has better damage and more options for AoE (Maim, Internal, Berserk, Storm Eye, Vengeance, Overpower, Steel Cyclone) on 0 to Low Cooldown .

PLD only AoE Attacks are Flash which does no damage and Circle of Scorn which has a 25sec Cooldown.

Speak of tanks, had a WAR tank in Garuda HM last night who rushed in right off the bat to pull her without waiting for buffs. Your sig perfectly portrays what happened so I laughed my ass off when I saw it. xD
