it might be because I'm level 90 gunbreaker and dark knight, and I didn't have to go through ARR grinding hell for those, but like, I've also been doing warrior in my alt and that doesn't feel as squishy through ARR dungeons as paladin does on my main
I swear if the answer is a lore thing... like come on you don't expect me not to mash through the ARR job quests, right?
No, my experience is similar. ARR PLD seems intended to rely on the extra block from the shield for mitigation, but in practice it doesn't make enough of a difference, and the lack of any self-heal until 60 is pain.
glad I'm not the only one lol
...guess that makes me a gladiator
It's good practice for being more aggressive about your mits I suppose. I use sheltron practically as fast as I get it on PLD.
The funny thing is that I had the opposite experience - PLD felt outright luxuriant compared to DRK, and it's my go-to for tanking lowbie duties. I think a large part of that is having your short CD mit (Sheltron) way earlier. Having something to push to offset double autos feels good regardless of the actual numerical difference.
WAR is just an outlier in terms of survivability. Raw Intuition is already incredibly good, especially in big pulls, and they just keep making it better.
(Also, if you're gonna mash through any ARR quests, you might as well mash through PLD's. And mash through the HW ones too, while you're at it!)
oh damn, I might not be doing something right then lol, I'm not too good at most video games
