WAR in BC. Do we need it?

[Illya]

Overgeared PLD in Sword Oath > Overgeared WAR in AK. Warrior needs Defiance to use their tools, PLD doesn't need Shield Oath. Fastest runs in AK I've done have been as PLD in Sword Oath. Should mention I have relics on both tanks.

For speedrunning AK, PLD >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> WAR simply because they can pop CDs to dramatically reduce or nullify damage, which gives the party time to run past the tank at certain points where the tank has to die in the right spot and the party has to be in the room past the spot.
