Hey everyone, so I've been playing this game for almost two months now and have focused on tanking for the most part. My PLD is my first level 70 and as such is the thing I'll be using as I approach harder content.

So my questions:

1. What is some advice regarding raids that you wish you'd known as a new tank? Apparently my role in the trial static will be as an OT, though I'm used to doing solely MTing for EX trials and Dungeons.

2. What kind of materia should I be melding as a PLD and what level gear makes it worth it? So far, my iLvl is 337 but I haven't melded anything so far.

3. How much should I be in Shield Oath vs. Sword Oath?
