WAR or PLD?

Gist: Heavy is terrible!

Between the two tanks, heavy removal is where Paladin has the advantage. It has Tempered Will, which gets rid of it. So if you hate the affliction Heavy THAT MUCH, then I recommend PLD. PLD is also more versatile when it comes to delivering status afflictions, whereas WAR is overall more maim-y. WAR is also more combo heavy than PLD (you have like, two combos on PLD, and one you rarely use). But I think PLD has more of the tactical edge, being that it has Silence (Spirits Within), Stun (Shield Bash, but WAR also has this, except it's not on GCD), Pacification (Shield Swipe). Also, Hallowed Ground is loads of fun. Though I feel less involved as a PLD than WAR, I feel more strategic. After all, even in the days of Darklight, Paladins were capable of soloing bosses like Chimera (without anyone aiding in stunning/silencing). WAR, however, is easiest when controlling the hate on several mobs. PLD can keep hate, but it's a tad more difficult.

PLD can keep hate, but it's a tad more difficult.

So much more easier after flash and circle got buffed, if you havn't tried it since patch you might wanna give it a go, I'd say AoE enmity now rivals that of WAR if not Surpasses.
