PLD Negotiation (Vs WAR)

[Leiron]

Either way. it's making the class with the highest hp also have the same or near the same damage mitigation as the PLD.

False.
Why?
Math

Shield oath= 20% mitigation
1/.8 = 1.25

Defiance= 25% hp buff

1.25 = 25% more hp = Shield Oath provides equivalent eHP to Defiance.
Another note

Shield oath provides a 25% indirect Healing bonus.
25% HP + 20% healing bonus < 25%hp + 25% healing bonus.
Defiance is behind.
Learn to math.

PLD doesn't have near as much hp or str as a WAR does, and the damage mitigation was the only thing that made up for it stat wise.

False, Paladin strength is very close.
Paladin eHP is higher than a War.
Base Hp is slightly lower b about 40 or so.

Math> you.

WAR aren't Under powered. People just didn't want to be a WAR because they thought it was going to be a DPS class when it first came out.

Wow you're better than Miss Cleo.
You can read people's minds and figure out exactly why they play a spec.
Oh wait no, you're just ignorant.
