Is Rage of Halone Overpowered in GLA/PLD's Kit?

[Leiron]

Only WAR's damage thresholds are alot higher than PLD, and any WAR worth half a salt is going to at least keep Maim up a majority of the time to supplement that damage penalty. Let me put it to you this way, in full DL gear with +30 STR mods, Sword Oath, Relic +1, STR DL/Hero Accessories and DPS buffs, the highest I've ever ever hit on PLD was 699, on WAR with Lv55 VIT Accessories, +30 VIT mods, Ifrits Axe, full DL, Defiance, Maim, w/o Berserk I've hit for 875 and can crit in the 600-800 range quite often despite the PLD having higher STR and Better weapon. That difference in damage alone will give the WAR an edge in Enmity generation, proving that the WAR does know what they are doing.

I do not believe you're considering how effective Sword Oath's effect is.
