Why use a Dragoon or Monk when you can use a Warrior?

Your thread title is wrong... It should read

"Why use a Paladin when you can use a Warrior?"

Hopefully that will be fixed today

They'd have to buff PLD single target/aoe DPS to be comparable to WAR for any smart linkshell to roll with one instead of WAR. This all just goes back to why MRD > GLA pre jobs. WAR has the better aoe for princess. WAR has the better single target for Chim/Mistress/Coincounter.

The problem is, the only way I see PLD being top choice again is if they gimp WAR's AoE like they did in 1.20. It is a sensitive issue because that is the main appeal of the Warrior is his AoE and ability to tank off that. So I think instead of gimping WAR, PLDs should excel. Meaning, they need more leverage in defense, because right now, my WAR ges hit just as hard as my PLD, but has way more HP to work with. Basically, defense needs to be fixed if PLD is no suppose to have high HP. So far all PLD is good at is holding hate.

Or raise the enmity threashold of PLD to a point where the loss in dps makes up for better hate control. Allow other dps to go harder speed up the fights.
