no actually my experiances come from LS events, as far as our gear, not many compete with our core group. soo your conclusion is not only speculative but it couldnt be any further from the truth? at what point did i ever mention i get my results from a pug, I simply indicated and ocasion in wich i witnessed a WAR tank ifrit and get HP drained fast as hell in full AF gear..
Further more, testing on high lvl mobs that pose more challange becuause they actually hit hard enough to put a dent in your theory that WAR rules supereme is not only not wasted time but is what you should expect from true end game content. You realy think a fight in wich a job like whm can tank the main boss is worth of "end game content" title? give me a break. Defend your precious WAR all you want bottom line is when people want a tank that can survive a true test of Tanking ability and not just simply contribute to a easly won speed run, then WAR will be put on the back burner , because war in fact DOSE NOT have the survivabilty that PLD or GLD do, and for the record you tanking on WHM has more to atriubte your team then you. If you honestly think for half a second , with a lesser team you could acomplish the same feat , your wrong, make the fight a challange, gimp it on purpose if you must, but dont come at me with 6 minute speed kills and claim thats sufficent evidance to proclaim anything but the fight is a cake walk. I guess you forgot about the 2 hour boss fights back when endgame content meant shit was hard and your tank had to have endurance and trully be able to TANK a boss , or maybe this wave of easy "endgame" content has made everyone forget the value of a tank that not only didnt take away from the party but enhanced it. WAR may do decent damage but THM/BLM is clearly the victor in that arena, not only that but war take 2 healers in most aplications. And god forbid the day when se brings back a boss in wich a tank can not use attack enhanced abilities to stay alive (Batrall). Troll all you want budy. But if SE ever throws a real fight at us, I hope you dont get out of practice with your PLD cuz your gona need it.
