im not taking side on this issue as my war tank is still lvl 30 (im trying to lvl my pgl to lvl 30 before i proceed to leveling war)

The WAR in Turn 1 is tanking the split Caduceus which does pretty much half as much damage as the full Caduceus and even then at around 3-4 Stacks he gets absolutely destroyed while the PLD remains fine (both snakes buff at pretty much the same time after split). Basically this just shows what we've been saying all along, that WAR can do content but it's a giant handicap when you could have just brought a PLD and done it easier/safer/better. Also there is no way a WAR could have tanked the remaining snake after they killed the first one, there is a reason they burned the WAR one down first.

As far as Turn 2, due to the mechanics of the fights you aren't really ever tanking the boss for more than 30-40 seconds at a time so survival is more on your healers keeping up with the burst for that time frame. As long as your party members are on the ball with keeping High Voltage silenced and passing Allagan Rot the only real threat either tank faces is getting hit by a triple Ballast due to bad positioning while still having the Vulnerability Debuffs. Also should a tank die a PLD could Hallowed Ground and give enough time for the second tank to raise back up and voke it off before stacks start increasing again.
