The Problem with Paladin

[TirionCrey]

as far as hate control gose btw, AOE heals work great for that not to meantion helps your dps without distracting your healer, and another realy good reason to have your tank able to heal the party , other then hate control, If your tank can handle the fight with one healer , that opens room for another DD, if this is the case, the tank being able to keep the DPS portion of the party alive or at least help with that is simply usefull, sanguine rite (pretty sure i spelled that wrong) and cure works great with devine veil

Aceofspades...you clearly got no clue what you're talking about. I don't want to be blunt, but of all the people defending PLD/GLA, you are the only one that obviously has no clue (I blame that on Ifrit being the hardest fight for you...)

First...Sanguine Rite works well with Cure and Divine Veil? Well, we lose access to Sanguine Rite once we are PLD...

WAR goes down fast after he pulls hate off the PLD? You seem to fail recognizing that WAR takes just as much DMG on getting hit as the PLD, while having over 1k HP more then PLD...which is the whole point everyone is arguing about.

The lower HP Pool of PLD wouldn't be much of an issue, if he actually did what he is supposed to do and that is being the DMG Mitigation Tank...sure he deals less dmg, sure he generates less enmity...yeah he can heal himself, but he will drop to the floor before the WAR does, while WAR deals more dmg, generates more enmity and get's the job done better then PLD...that's the whole point of these discussion but you seem to ignore them or are unable to see them.

edit: Just checked your lodestone profile...Ifrit is actually all you ever got done...no Moogle, nothing in the new dungeon...so how can you even argue with the people who actually tried PLD on the content and clearly know it is not working as it should.

Your arguments are not viable just from the fact that you haven't even beaten the stuff on your PLD...
