    Someone brought up a good point about ARR getting rid of speedruns. I think a big part of WAR>PLD was that people needed to get through the content ASAP for the good stuff, like Darklight bodies. Since, WARs can tank AND do dmg at the SAME TIME really made PLD useless. I mean let's be honest, WAR can tank, and help kill crap faster which results in a better chance of speedrun. FACT

    People will still steamroll through dungeons in ARR because people are idiots FACT but hopefully with that speedrun bullshi* gone, that might open the door a crack for PLDs.

    Another thing I noticed was we only started using PLD vs Chimera when we found out healing adds a ton of aggro, so a PLD can keep hate better than a WAR just by spam healing him/herself. Maybe SE will add that schtick (however it's spelled) for some mobs or bosses where cures give you 500% more aggro than normal so PLD would be better for that since the WHM would tear enmity from the WAR from spam curing.

    way to try to turn opinion into fact. end game shells that were doing the highest content including the speed runs were using pld because a skilled and well geared pld is a better tank than a geared and skilled war FACT

    just because war can do damage, but not hold hate as well as a pld does not make fights go quicker FACT

    if your dd's have to hold off or just stop attacking because they are about to pull hate from the war that slows down the fight FACT. if the dd's can go all out and not take hate from the pld because he holds hate better than the war does then it speeds up the fight FACT
