I've tank on both my WAR and my PLD in Coil. If you're not in a not in a situation where you have to use your CDs, WAR and PLD are going to be pretty well matched; as soon as the damage gets high enough that you *have* to start throwing down CDs to survive, WAR becomes useless because their CD suite is only marginally better than DRG's and MNK's.
I don't know how wars are supposed to do it with their CD's. I MT Twintania, and If me or my healers aren't paying attention, I still can get gibbed by Death Sentence combos. Granted, I have had absolutely terrible luck with drops out of BC, but I'm still wearing 6 pieces of i90 gear, and have 6.4kish hp(which will jump tonight, either with more drops or with me buying my 5th piece of valor).
