Having played EW since early access launched, maining the same PLD I've had since ARR, subsequently leveling DRK and GNB to 90 in that order, and getting as far as starting (though not yet clearing) P1S I wanted to add my thoughts on Tank jobs, specifically PLD/GNB/DRK with my MRD only being 18, to the mix. My goal is to state my impressions and give suggestions for small changes (albeit some with lengthy justifications) that could be made without a total job rework.

Paladin (PLD):
Overall PLD feels great to play. Not having a gap closer for lower levels is probably the most conspicuous issue, to the point where I don't do 50/60/70/80 or Leveling roulettes with what I consider my main job. For High-end, it's no secret PLD dps might be a little low even granting that PLD "should" do the least dps of the four. Lastly, in ShB it was easier, visually, to track where you were with Requiescat because of its interaction with the MP bar. It's easier to get lost now that it uses status bar stacks, especially on learning new content; presumably new players have the same problem throughout.

PLD Suggestions
> Have Requiescat stacks be represented in PLDs (currently) very simple Job Gauge.

> Shield Bash oGCD, 10s / 4x GCD Recast time. Gives low level PLD something extra to do in lieu of gap closer. Adds a tiny bit of extra DPS.

> Rebalance Goring Blade / Confiteor combo DoT to makeup PLD dps shortcoming. Have DoT do same/more total damage per cast with shorter duration. If an extra GB combo can be squeezed into the overall rotation, this should be enough to fix the dps discrepancy, though it could end up being too strong.

> Rebalance Confiteor combo to give BoV more oomph. The numbers really don't match the visual. Move 150 potency from BoFaith and 200 potency from BoTruth to BoValor, for 780 potency on main target. Move DoT to BoFaith, make BoTruth do full AoE damage, move all MP regen to BoValor.
