PLD any better than WAR?

[Saccharin]

It's a matter of personal preference more than anything else. Paladins have fewer active skills and a much simpler rotation, but a larger variety of cooldowns to play with. Otherwise it's mostly just minor differences - like their AOE threat builder has a 360 degree radius but doesn't do damage, and their stun is on the GCD but spammable. Geared right and played decently there's very little between them in terms of tanking capability.

Well flash (and provoke) is available to warriors too.
