    PLD has:
    1) Utterly laughable AoE damage.
    2) Absolutely horrid damage in tank stance.
    3) A clunky stance dance system that diminishes the usefulness of Sword Oath.
    4) Defensive advantages that are rendered moot by 3 out of 4 of the current endgame raids as no skills that involve your shield can be used against magic damage.
    5) Even in fulltime Sword Oath with slashing debuff, you come somewhat behind DRK and WAR.

    Of course according to the community PLDs defense is Super OP and absolutely invincible and for that reason alone they should do 50 DPS and never have any reliable AOE ever. After all, everyone knows that if you Sheltron 65536 times while doing a Harvest Dance you block Hypercompressed Plasma for 100% and return all the damage to the boss.

    PS: If your reasoning as to why PLD shouldn't do at least half the AOE damage as WAR/DRK is that you're slighlty tougher for trash pulls you probably should sit down and reconsider just how relevant trash pulls are in endgame.

    Anyone basing a job's value on content tuned for ITEM LEVEL 190+ (caps for emphasis because some people are too thick to comprehend otherwise) at this point does not deserve to be taken seriously.

    Complete and total rubbish? You're laughable. A quick look at your lodestone tells me you have neither completed FCOB, beaten Ravana EX or gotten any tank class besides Dark Knight to 60. So I ask you: What do you know about PLD's endgame? Where does your vast and strong knowledge come from? It seems you have very strong opinions ("endgame sheep"? seriously?) yet absolutely no basis for them. So instead of hollering at me about i190 tuning (most endgame raid groups are already at this or very close to this) how about you address the points I made and bother to actually refute them? I'll be sitting here all day, eagerly expecting you to tell me about PLD's Uber Defenses and Totally acceptable DPS, incredible AoE, and smooth stance dancing system.
