Ou simplement leur indiquer le bon endroit ?
Il m'est arrivé aussi de confondre ces deux forums en passant directement par " Class & Jobs ".

It's the french topic here, please take a look here: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/forums/657

Sooo what i think i got out of this was...
Tried to tank Titan HM in bad gear
Make WAR a DPS and have PLD as the only tank class.

I don't see anything wrong with the WAR, yet... Still leveling mine up. WAR may be subpar to a PLD but I think any competent group can make it work.

Granted I'm a PLD and I haven't done Titan or Garuda HM only Ifrit (still looking for sword) and I've done WP/AK/CM/Praetorium.
I can't vouch for War at end game but my limited experience grouping with a War, I enjoy it. I believe that PLD and WAR were ment to compliment each other in groups.
Each has their strengths and weaknesses and I believe each has their role.
What I find discouraging reading posts about WAR on these forums is that people want WAR to be a PLD with an axe. I do agree with most of the end game Warriors that it may need a little tweaking here and there on some abilities but the core of the job is viable and when paired with a PLD makes a great team.

My Warrior is only lvl 30, that's kinda where I halted it since I don't really want to have 2 lvl 50 tank jobs.

My WAR has quite a lot of Darklight but I'm still hesitant about Titan. Because I know I'll be undergeared.

My PLD is 49 but I'd still wait for more Darklight to do it.

I honestly don't see a massive problem with WAR. It's got a bad name because people don't know how to play it properly. IMO PLD is a lot easier. Easier doesn't mean better.
