Rdm/nin and nin/drk are better than plds but they cant tank all HNM's like at DI u need a PLD.Every1 use PLD cuz is the easier job to tank but not the best 1.
Gotta disagree with you there, seen RDM and NIN tank DI fine, its just about the tank's knowledge of avoiding the TP moves, people on Ramuh know of Magician on RDM at DI, or the likes of a decent NIN, been used with us before. It is a simple learning curve for a tank on DI dodging TP moves when you aint on PLD, takes some getting use to, but its easy after a while.
And honestly, RDM/PLD/NIN can all tank anything in HNMs, some are just more advisable than others since they have more to fall back on, PLD example have a easy way to cap Cumulative right off the bat and spike Volatile, self cure 4 macro just makes the job easier, and not to mention all the ***PLD can fall back on.
And lol at tanking in merits.
You need to cast spells for hate as nin or rdm unlike pld u just need flash and ability so i doubt u can tank it lol, and even if u are that good u need alot of time for build hate.
