    This came up in shouts recently and it boils down to this:

    PLD is still bad.

    SE designing fights around making PLD useful doesn't make PLD good; it means the job is being catered to in order to keep it relevant without actually fixing the problems in the balance.

    I agree. Designing content to cover glaring weaknesses and pretend nothing is wrong with the job class isn't the answer. Because once you take the smoke and mirrors away you can clearly see that Warrior is basically the best Tank job in the game now.

    Just like how a lot of the new content forces tank swaps to hide the fact that Tank A is a hindrance in MT role and Tank B is a hindrance in Offtank role. Whereas Tank C is great in both.
