i disagree on practically all accounts.

first of all, there wasn't that much difference between PLD and WAR HP. if 3500-4000 paladin HP wasn't enough for your healers, then i don't know what to tell you. just keeping regen on the tank and throwing curagas on the melee is often enough to keep any tank topped off.

secondly, two words: plasma acoustics. this is the only truly dangerous part of the fight for a tank, and a good paladin should always be able to predict it and block it. any HP of the warrior is just a visual safety net. in practice it was irrelevant. once they get the defense down from acoustics, darnus still cuts through their HP like butter whether they're a PLD or a WAR

and relating to that: paladin had an "OH SH*T" button in the form of invincibility. warrior didn't.

so i don't really buy the argument that warrior was safer. not at all.
