Determination STILL affects Auto-attacks. It affects them less.

PLD in Sword Oath does roughly 70 DPS less than WAR in Deliverance provided it gets TP and Slashing debuff. PLD OT doing 70 less DPS than WAR but WAR MT doing 150~300 DPS more than PLD MT is higher DPS than DRK MT / WAR OT.

PLD "shines" as the single safest tank. I say this for the hundredth time! (well not really, but yeah). Safety is what makes PLD better than WAR. Both tanks mitigate the same damage on busters, PLD does it far more safely.

This game only has three metrics for tanks: DPS, Mitigation, Utility. PLD is already at the top in two of them.
