    Seriously speaking though, PGL was an awesome tank pre-1.18 and is now more clearly than ever an offensive tank.

    PGL has no trouble holding hate - hell it can hold hate better than a GLA. It's the survival aspect. PGL needs to evade to tank effectively and Light Strike's continuous buff was a huge boon to that end. The move has been gimped to become situational now and I can say firsthand I do not evade nearly as much.

    However, provided you rank GLA and MRD to basically 50 and get all them sub skills, well no shit you can tank But honestly if I managed to get GLA or MRD to 50 I'd rather tank on them at this point.

    PGL is being made more and more into a DD, but where it really shines is being the best solo class.
    Welcome to FFXIV?

    If you want to tank well on any class (including GLA) you need more than one job 45+. A Pugilist can tank without Defender II, just like a Gladiator can, but they aren't going to be as good as one with it.
