How to Build a PLD, needing tips plz.

[Aceofspades]

I hate to get sucked in, but please Ace, read your own quote here,

Sure the Defense and Vit numbers look pretty, but you realize for all those stats you're still using cooldowns given to the average Joe Pld? The massive hp that some use (myself included) is to keep from getting 1shot by just about anything in game. It also increases enmity through Spirit's Within, and is just more useful all around for a pld tank, be it a turtle tank or not. I have nearly the same mitigation as you just suggested in your post, and yet I have roughly 70 less defense and 30 less vit. In the grand scheme of things, for all the melds and stat stacking you do, you don't have very much more than I, however I have 1500 hp more. This huge hp allows 1 to be lazy, for I can "super" tank anything in game.

curious then, what your materia build is? i have double on all but the shield and triple on the shield, enless your adding 3 materias or more to your gear your claims are unlikely. But I will not say it is not true as far as your claim for hp being MORE usefull all around that is simply un true, even Primals do more physical damage then magical , outside of primals dev/vit is certainly the clear winner, soo again, Even though I can respect your opinion, I strongly disagree, If we were on the same server I am down for any challange put forth if anyone wanted to challange my claims. Other then that we will simply have to agree to disagree. oh and btw, 1500 hp is only and advantage untill the first 1500 damage taken, after that it is simply add HP that your WHM has to keep up with , and have a harder time doing soo, You claim you can take the same numbers as me, Again, I am up to any challange, I honestly and seriously doubt your claim's validity
