Defiance still lacking in comparison to Shield Oath

[Coramac]

And if you just make sure you keep up bloodbath every time its off cooldown you can easily offset the difference the pld has in mitigation, it just takes a bit more err i hate to say it... player skill, the potential is there for warrior.

Paladins can use Bloodbath too. Granted, they deal less damage, but it results in a marginal difference.
