One question if someone can answer it. War's have more hp but they're missing out on block. Extra mitigation creates more "effective health" for the PLD. At similar gear levels which one comes out ahead numerically? I'm fairly new and willing to accept most of what the OP says about damage etc. However for me the big thing with tanking is making sure I can take the most amount of damage while needing the least amount of work from the healer. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
