    They used Paladin to avoid confusion, some people can't comprehend that anything but shields=tank
    Frankly anyone who chooses Paladin over Warrior in 2.0 must have a white knight fetish or something, Paladin is much more boring in 2.0 meanwhile all of the Warrior abilities look amazing, and besides you totally get to feel like Conan the Barbarian swinging your axe around to hold agro instead of spamming Flash and hitting for abysmal damage

    You had something good going on here. A friend of mine is still struggling with the idea of WAR as a two-hander tank despite having played a two-hander tank in WoW. As for why I'd choose PLD over WAR, I never liked axes.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
