So I made the swap to PLD today and...

Killed Ifrit for relic chain, won the weapon.

Killed Garuda for relic chain, won the weapon.

Killed Titan for relic chain, won the shield.

These were all my first kills of those primals as a PLD.

Can't wait for coil next week!

I also have to add WAR was my first and until today only 50, took it through to Twintania. Playing as a PLD now, I feel almost indestructible, I feel much more in control of the damage I take instead of being just a large HP bar in a suit of armor.

It also feels like I have more to do, stuns, silences, blinding, pacification, 2 offensive skills off the GCD to watch, and that when I do push to do more I'm actually getting something out of my character rather than just trying to strive to break even.

Just my personal experience thus far as a PLD re-roll.
