Funny, I started as a PLD, then leveled WAR in 2 days because I was sick of agro issues (I had Ifrit's sword, and I had a relic SMN and relic MNK in my static group... not fun). I prefer WAR honestly, as a Paladin I feel like I have no control of my HP bar. I KNOW that this is an illusion, and that I would have much more eHP on the PLD, but I just prefer the feel of the WAR.

To each their own. I honestly hope they don't buff the WAR too much in the coming patch. I *like* the fact that I constantly get compliments about being a really good Warrior, and the fact that I've tanked everything in the game (yes including dreadnaughts) tells me that WAR is good enough.

Glad you're enjoying the PLD though, after all that's why we're here isn't it?
