Since I can't decide which one I enjoy playing more, I figured I'd like to hear from those of you who have played both. Which one do you enjoy the most, and what is it about that job that puts it above the other for you?

i'm still leveling war, but so far i prefer drk. so far, warrior is 100% dps with tanking baked in, but i almost always tank, so i like making tanking decisions. for example, the drk has to decide between dps and enmity combo. the warrior just does the enmity combo and that happens to be the best dps too
also, leveling war, there isn't anything to do besides spam overpower and sometimes i run out of tp. at least the drk has the back and forth of spending mp and regaining mp
What about PLD? - #TrollPost
I honestly prefer WAR and PLD myself. WAR has a unique rotation it uses, albeit for maximizing damage. The only thing is that it's still a bit strong, so I don't necessarily play it as much since I do prefer finding a challenge in a job outside of the skill ceiling required.
I prefer dark knight too. He's the perfect MT in this game and he looks awesome with his greatsword. Moreover he has good dmg mitigations and still a good dmg output.
Warrior. Nothing can beat the sound of Fell Cleave.
DRK is better than Warrior in every way imo. WAR really doesn't have much it needs to watch for, while DRK is constantly an active juggling masterpiece. Where the WAR is a slow and sluggish Mighty Glacier, DRK is more akin to a savage Lightning Bruiser.
I assure you I wasn't trolling, I wanted to enjoy PLD but I just can't, its not engaging enough to me and I don't find it anywhere near as fun as the other two... so my question was between DRK and WAR.What about PLD? - #TrollPost

Gladiator, I like GLD, you should try it out, it's cool, you can use {Feint}
DRK out of the two. WAR is super boring to play optimally.
My life while tanking is an existential hell from which there is no escape.
I enjoy them both. I main warrior and it's my favorite job above all other things. But I've been taking DRK into roulettes lately because it's a lot of fun to play, period.
Paladin is good to play strategically at higher levels, like current tier savage and extremes, but I find it's not much fun outside of that.
For warrior, it drives my co tank nuts to play it because he absolutely hates maintaining the stacks or needing stacks for certain moves at certain times. That's one of the things I enjoy about it, so it takes a certain mindset to get the most of out warrior and enjoy it.
