Agreed with all above.
I play 100% vanilla and handle a vast amount of content "solo." I put that in quotes because I also hang with some nice and talented players that make many things possible. I also have a very large group of jobs properly leveled and geared for any situation.
I have pld geared and it's near useless when I'm solo. It packs zero punch and I can't achieve much of what I need. What does work?
BLU
I don't like the job much but you need BLU. For soloing slightly older content that involves mass mobs nothing beats Blu cleaving. Einherjar, assaults, escha soloing. No contest.
THF
A top level geared thf gives you TH, massive evasion,and respectable dps to bring down what you need. Soloing Omen, Sinister Reign, most NMs through escha sky gods all no problem.
You can make PLD work, but use other jobs to service the one you care about the most.
