PLD Requires more Skills

[Ultimatecalibur]

well its not that they are useless, it is that it is not needed in many, but many raids. There are little to no chances you will be needing any one those skill. specially is savage where boss is non -stun able. If a person is a good tank, there is no need for cover, but it is a nice skill. and pacification? oh please.

In A3 both Normal and Savage, the Big Hand form has an AoE knockback attack called Wash Away which can be negated with Tempered Will and the Tornado form has adds that can be and should be stunned.

In A4 Normal Phases 1 and 2, If you stun the leg giving off steam the Perpetual Ray that follows deals reduced damage making it easier to survive therefore preventing the Manipulator from getting damage up stacks.

Monk:

Aside from situationalities of Fists of Earth and Wind, MNKs have literally useless abilities.

Haymaker (Counter)... Evasion is not a thing. Having a skill that requires the MNK to be tanking in the first place is a joke.

Arm of the Destroyer: Very weak AoE, very expensive TP and the silence is very hard to land.

You forgot One Ilm Punch.

I like the post you made so far and it's pretty much what I'm trying to get at. There's more to PLD then it's 1,2,3 it's been branded with.

I got the feeling that you MUST stun it in savage or its GG :P

Let's just say... it plays a much bigger role in Savage.
