Sorry to be the annoying pally here. Totally not related to warriors which are awesome, won’t disagree there [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
First capping Str is easy for melee on a raid. Focus or Maniacal Strength + Focus will do it easy. A Y4 at 40 Strength and you only need like 150 unbuffed. Easy.
Second while Y4 won’t stack with Grim Aura or Major Shielding it stacks with everthing else. By my math Grim Aura is 10 attk and Y4 is 42 attk (capped Str).
What’s 32 attack on raid targets? A third of avatar. A big deal.

If capping str is easy on a raid, the str on Yaulp4 is useless. count both the SK and Pal as str maxed, and then yaulp4 is worth 17 ATK and 15 AC, which i was just sayin was about the same as grim aura for DPS (grim aura is 10 ATK). A wash for dps, does not describe the DPS discrepancy quoted by the gentleman earlier.
Recap: str - capped both for Pal and SK unless real noobs.
ATR - within a few points, either way (5 offense to SK, slight yaulp advantage over grim aura for pal)
weapons - about same
Spells - lifetaps are all that are going to land when raid DPS is being calculated, small SK advantage (the proc form mostly, dont think casting them will really be a good substitution for swinging)
Specials (LOH vs harm touch) - slight SK avantage
Pet - zero very slight adv SK
If those rankings were accurate, then the Pal numbers can only be from superior level or superior playskill, but not mathematically from the game stats that i can come up with. I'm trying to learn, not suggesting i actually know squat about endgame aside from forum lurking and wiki.
