WAR MT + PLD OT vs. PLD MT + WAR OT in terms of DPS

Stuff

Why are you adding in Brutal Swing's potency numbers but not Circle of Scorn or Spirits Within? And why aren't you accounting for the extra 50 potency per auto attack from Sword Oath into the total PLD potency production? (And don't forget PLD auto attacks more often than WAR) There's no question that WAR hits harder with weapon skills. The way PLD in sword oath potentially closes the gap is through off-gcd skills and passive damage from auto attacks. Talking about how high you can crit sort of misses the point.

This is kitru's old math post comparing sword oath PLD to non-defiance WAR.
