I wouldn't call it too strong, its damage is kinda bad and mostly only serves to be annoying. Also if 3 people focus warrior at once it dies very quickly.

Like most things, PvP will face some rebalance down the road.
I doubt anyone would think otherwise.
PVP WAR has downsides. It's not personally great at damage unless LB is up, and only then at risk to itself since it has to go in. It is fantastic at setting up kills and disrupting what you're trying to do. Getting got by team combinations is a real thing in 6.1 PVP, as opposed to the simple "I heal you, you go DRG / MNK / NIN" combination of the previous build.
I personally dislike playing OP "characters" in PVP games.
Once you start playing the OP class, people will expect you to play it and playing something over and over again is not fun. It is initially giving you a good feeling to win. Because we all want to win... but when half the community will just fret at your achievement, while the other will expect you to do this a 100 more times, is as bit of an non welcomed pressure from a video game...
I hope they balance things out. Also, to allow different classes to be more playable.
I think they did something really great with this mode, I just really hope they will put constant effort into it, to maintain this. Because this mode clearly has potential.
If any thing, I would look at the healers, specially WHM, and don't get me started with SMN, bullshit levels.
I guess this is state of healers in pvp is to compensate for their pve state. LMAO
Yoshi P. has a hard-on for Warriors because we stun everything we see! He plays His games, we play ours! To show our appreciation for so much power, we keep the message board packed with fresh salt! -Gny. Sgt. Gorge
True story.
WAR is definately top tier, only topped by WHM in sheer power and utility.
Any good team wants both of them in their composition and if you are lacking either you are at disadvantage.
At least with DPS you have a bit of variety to pick. SAM, DRG, NIN, RDM are absolute powerhouses when played well and MCH, SMN and BRD aren't lagging that much behind either.
Currently the weakest Job is GNB followed by DNC and soon after RPR and BLM.
Everything else varies from decent to pretty good.
Warrior is a good tank. I don't think it's broken simply because basically all tanks are not good enough if you compare to some DPS's or White Mage.Because every time my group is forced to face a Warrior + some DPS that has a one shot skill it might as well be the end of the match because that is literally how it almost goes.
Happens every damn time its frustrating.
I know I've read Summoner is really causing a lot of problems, but least there is a chance to end them, but facing a Warrior is almost impossible.
There must be some way to beat these guys, I refuse to believe they're invincible, and I've hated warriors before this patch and now I really despise them in PVP.
I'm sorry I just needed to vent.
Actually the situation of some DPS's makes me think that this new pvp was not tested before the release
