WAR Underwhelming?

[Syfin]

I believe he's laughing because you seem to have misunderstood your role as a WAR (at least that's my guess =P ).

Long story short PLD is a main tank that's meant to take damage from the heavier hitting bosses whereas a WAR is an off tank. It serves a duel role in that it can dish out damage like a DD but it can also tank to a certain extent. This is a role that is best suited to help with crowd control during boss fights with adds or trash mobs while running dungeons...

So, in other words, we have do not belong in Titan fight. We cant dps as well as a true dps class and so PTs will just use a pld and 5 dps. This is a design flaw.

Not necessarily, WAR can still dish out a hefty amount of damage. The key is to have yourself properly geared, and to know your abilities. In Titan your role would be primarily a DD role, so here you wouldn't put up defiance (as that lowers your damage output by 25%). Also it helps if you keep Maim up as that will give you a 20% boost to damage. Heck even when I have defiance up I can still crit for well over 300, outside of defiance I'm doing even more.

What use is warrior dps if dark light warriors are getting killed fast compared to dark light paladins?
