SE didn't expect or plan for us to be clearing a4s anywhere close to when it was. They expected it to take several more cycles of esoterics caps before we were capable. The only reason it was accomplished was because everyone in the clearing parties pushed massive dps. Pld is capable of clearing a4s at the ilevels the fight was tuned for, but to say that a class is worthless because it can't go above and beyond what the developers thought possible is silly.

All pld needs to shine again is for the game to start adding fights that require tanks to take harder hits instead of push dps to reach absurd checks. This can be done without massive buffs or nerfs to any class
