Need help between war and pld

[Fluffernuff]

Warriors carry a big stick.
Paladins cower behind a shield.

Go Warrior.

HA! It's funny because it's tru-

OH wait! Except every WAR hides behind every other tank at first sight. Too afraid to take a single hit! Where's that testosterone!? Where's that pride!?

I'll tell you where: dripping down your legs with the pee you soiled yourself with!

Instead of cowering behind the other tanks, you WARs should grow a spine! Take a hit! And please... when there's 2 of you, one of you just need man up and be a tank. none of us want to slip in the puddles you leave behind trying to decide.



...Or better yet, go back to your little support corner and let the BIG boys play.

I merely responded in kind! If this is the best you WARs can bring after being challenged, then you only prove my point!

This is why a PLD is clearly superior!

This is what PLD mains actually believe.

Was that supposed to be a rebuttal!? Was this meant to shake me!? It was a rather poor attempt!

What a poor choice of words. "Believe"? No, we don't "believe" this is the case at all. Do you "believe" the sky is blue? No. You KNOW the sky is blue.

Here I thought Warriors were supposed to be pillars of might! Unwavering beasts whose primal rage strikes fear into the hearts of lesser men! Yet all I fear in my heart now is disappointment... Are these truly the sharpest fangs you can bare!?


...Or maybe... Perhaps I have caught you during one of your many periods of pacification! It is indeed rare that you don't announce it to the world every second you draw closer to exhaustion! Very well! I will give you the time you require to catch your breath!

Sauron must have been a WAR. He could fell cleave 6 enemies with each swing, and then die from one hit to the finger.

I want a WAR nerf so badly in 4.0 just to hear all the arrogant asshat warriors crying tears of unfathomable sadness.

Darling, you need to go sit in a corner for a few seconds until you can sound less insane. Unless of course you're trolling on purpose, in which case: well done. They seem to be falling for it. /clap

(guys, her main says DRK, as much as I love PLDs I doubt she actually means the BS she's spouting. For shame taking such obvious bait!).

[SeriousxSarcasm]

Anyway, back on topic: level all the tanks. You need paladin for provoke at least. Then decide based on what role you want. I would heavily recommend checking out DRK since it's so OP in current content compared to WAR or PLD.

Paladin is the default Main Tank in... pretty much all situations except A12 (and whatever other ones have the heavy magic damage). The times when Paladin can't main tank, people want a Dark Knight instead. You're fighting with a pool noodle, but in PUG content, much easier on the team to have a tank that can mostly take care of themselves.

As Warrior you're basically always Off Tank to take full advantage of their offensive abilities. They're essentially wasted as a main tank (and little more than an MP sink for healers once their cooldowns are gone). Keep in mind a lot of groups don't even bring an off tank anymore if there's no tank-swap mechanic, sooo you might have problems there. You will have to really practice where and when you need your cooldowns, because you don't have a lot, and using them inappropriately will reeeeally piss off your healers.

Honestly I recommend starting as Paladin. it's easier to learn, and more forgiving when you make a mistake. If you decide main tank isn't for you: go with WAR. If you want to stay as main tank: stick with PLD and/or change to DRK when you get the chance.

Will you /ehold me while I cry tears of unfathomable sadness?
