I feel like its easier to sustain oneself w/out support on pld than run, because of, you know, curing.
Turms mitts would like to have a word with you. Phalanx, regen and mitts are an incredible combo. Add in Battula for extra parry/healing.
Did I say Run isn't a fantastic tank? Did I say it does not have lots of great damage mitigation tools?
No no, you are completely ignoring the statement and throwing a straw man at me by implication. Or are you really saying that Phalanx, regen 4, turms mittens and battuta are all the curing a rune fencer needs to compete with Paladin's Majesty Cure 4 spam? (pld has phalanx also).
I know how to play Rune Fencer. I've tanked most major content in the game on my Rune Fencer and it is well geared. I don't claim to be a Rune expert, but I dont' have to be to see the writing on the wall.
Paladin has tons of curing power. Rune fencer has very limited curing power. I say this translates into better SOLO sustainability. That means no healer or support. How long can they keep going without support? I'm pretty sure Paladin wins in this area.
It would take some tests to really show it. I don't think its a very bold claim either.
There are plenty of good reasons why Rune Fencer is the preferred tank. However, saying that Paladin has nothing on Rune fencer is just lazy and ignorant.
