    I was just thinking about this when I showered. My PLD is 58 now, and since I enjoyed both WAR and DRK so much, it makes me think whether having a 60 seemingly simplistic PLD is going to be of any use at all. But then it came to me that PLD is just like the NIN/BRD of tank classes; the skills that I thought rather useless (Cover, Healing Skills, and Stoneskin) only can be optimized when we're not so busy tanking. Even Hallowed Ground can be used sparingly in DF dungeons to let the healer switch to Cleric Stance and burn down the boss for the next 10 secs.

    Yes, maybe Sword Oath PLD will never beat DRK and WAR OT stance, but its utilities may come in handy either as a raid utility dps boost or raid survivability in Savages (Pardon me if I'm wrong, never tried any savage so it's not really my place to make the claim). Maybe now in DRK/PLD situation I will let the DRK MT while I'm being the supportive PLD, because I never really sure what to do when there's no WAR around. I simply assume that if the other tank doesn't have the tank stance on, it means they want me to MT lol.
