For tanking: Keep af1 if you dont have koenig or iron ram.
For /nin tanking: W turban
That's just my opinion though.
a PLD with some I.Q said:
I'd slap anyone who is a PLD, using W.Turban to cast utsusemi:Ichi in
there is somes goods but look like its mixed up, Koenig head for tanking ? i'd rather take AF1 or AF2 Head for the enmity bonus, over the +5 shield skills, assuming you are /WAR and the DD in your PT are average, because if its a PT where there are 2 SAM spaming Gekko with a Soboro or somes crazy ***like that, hate can be an issue sometime. me i use Aegishjalmr as /NIN & "sometimes" /WAR personaly.
but now when it come to /NIN, and more when you have to cast a ninjutsu as slow as is utsusemi:Ichi, the Koenig Schaller became important, because if by chance you block the next attack with your shield the casting of utsusemi:ichi wont be interupted.
It is where Koenig schaller with its +5 Shield Skill bonus come to be important.
This is also why, AF1 feets are so great, not many piece of gear will give you +10 Shield skills.
On another note, PLD/NIN you focus more Enmity/Haste, and tend to forget the old VIT+, so for the rest of the slots availables, try to get the more haste possible for the recast ofcourse.
