    It's been the sustain tank for quite some time now. I can only assume they'll eventually decide to shake up meta by moving that crown to one of the others somewhere down the line, as has been their m.o.
    Not gonna lie, I've kinda got a sinking feeling about WAR in Dawntrail. People have spent an entire expansion railing against them. A massive kneejerk reaction crippling them would not be surprising.
    You said “things you do by yourself you don’t do as a group” the only thing that would apply to that involves needing that high sustain is WAR and PLD being able to solo content they shouldn’t be able to solo, otherwise the content is also balanced to allow DRK to do it therefore meaning that PLD/WAR’s self sustain is excessive

    Ah, you're missing context. I see. This somewhat makes more sense now. The post you were reacting to was made in response to others seemingly wanting PLD and WAR to lose their healing without being duly compensated in other areas, which would prevent them from properly engaging with certain forms of content due to their kits being designed with that healing in mind. You appear to be interpreting their kits as mitigation + healing, but that healing is in fact intended to serve as part of their mitigation. Their current kits would not be adequate in the event the healing was gutted.

    If you gutted both of their healing PLD would lose nothing at all, WAR would need some slight adjustments to nascent flash and bloodwhetting to counter they are weaker on the mitigation side (but not by much), WAR and PLD with zero healing would still be around the level of current DRK
