His point was that WAR AoE enmity generation is powerful but not even remotely close to sustainable. Overpower will plow through your TP like no one's business. You'll have that much needed enmity cushion while you're waiting for your TP to come back but you're also going to have to deal with likely loss of your Wrath stacks and Maim.

PLD AoE enmity generation is *much* more reliable over the long term than a WAR's, not to mention easier to use. Yes, a PLD will have to spam the living hell out of Flash and CoS to keep aggro on targets getting AoEd down, but it's not like they don't have *enough*. Flash until I'm out of MP and FB>Riot>Flash from that point on is exactly what I do in WP speed runs and I don't have any issues keep enmity off of people.
