I wasn't knocking PLD in my previous post, btw. After reading over it, I feel like it looked like I was. PLD is a very effective tank job, both are. I started in 2.0 as PLD and loved it. It wasn't until I got my WAR to 50 that I realized how much more enjoyable and rewarding it was to play WAR effectively.

You might find yourself loving PLD, or you might be like me and think WAR is much more fun to play. Whichever you pick, they're both perfectly capable of clearing every piece of content in the game. People that think one is better than the other, simply have no clue what they're talking about.
