Warrior is OP

[astrobear]

is it bad that i immediately said "bullshxt!!!!" when i saw the thread title?

People who say warriors are bad are just bandwagoners who jump on the close minded train like people do with all mmorpgs. Warriors have plenty of practical applications in all areas of the game.

I'd heal a warrior over a paladin any day on Titan. Increase lustrate/benediction/stoneskin effect on warriors in combination with their upped DPS make them a first pick for when I do Titan.

I have a 50 PLD and am leveling my WAR. I'm not knocking warriors, as it's the style of tanking I prefer, but to correct one misunderstanding, while they do more damage than Paladins, testing has shown that the extra damage while in tanking stance is marginal. Probably not what was intended, but it seems to be the case.

this has been a pretty one sided debate. one side brings facts to the debate and even shows the math behind them and the other side plugs their ears and shouts "NA NA NA NA i can't hear you!!!!". they then follow that up by giving a comparison of a skill that does not exist in the game to a skill used at the wrong time that is in the game. i have to say from what i've seen the pld side is completely correct. the war is not bad, but it is not as effective as pld.

we saw this in 1.0 as well. yoshi adds content, talks about how hard it is, says it will take a long time to beat, does a contest to see how long the community thinks it will take, and watch the community down that "difficult" content in only a few hours. the community as a whole is much more skilled than they think and it's been proven over and over.

I wish you were around on my server, bunch of Warrior haters here

I don't have War..but from what I've seen from coils experience. War is good for tanking adds and PLD main tanking MB. On turn 2 We tanks work together to exchange hate. Everyone has a role to play...even the war. ^^

Last Stand is a Warrior ability in WoW that increases the Warriors HP by 30% for 20 seconds, this ability does not exist in FFXIV.

Thrill of the battle.

Thrill of Battle = Last Stand

The way some of you are getting hysterical is ridiculous. Its like if someone said "Dungeon Finder" and you reacted with "THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS 'DUNGEON' FINDER IN THIS GAME!!!" /eyeroll

[ken00]

I've grouped with Warriors in Dungeons, they can both tank and do massive dps unlike PLD who are purely tanks

hahaha laughed to hard at this
