I'm not entirely sure that the devs are hesitant to make any significant changes given the fact that they've said that they're reexamining WAR performance on 6 different fronts. Even if they're all comparatively small tweaks, they'll have to add up to some pretty big changes so that WAR can actually compete with PLD (causing healing to scale with incoming damage rather than damage is a significant change and the WAR CD suite would need to be made twice as effective as it is now to match the PLD suite). WAR has several areas where they match PLD or are close enough that it doesn't matter (damage, enmity, mitigation in 4 man content), but the areas that it *is* inferior (mitigation in 8 man content, spike mitigation, CD suite) need major revision.
