Armsman , Paladin or Friar for PVE 90% 10% RVR

Hi again,

So I got my infiltrator to lv50 so I'll be playing him 90% of my pvp time ( and learn the game by dying a lot ) but I noticed that if I want to make money I need farmer class , I made a necro but another thing I noticed is obviously raids , groups depending on setups they need :

Healer
Tank
Battery
PBAE

I have my necro and damn it should have kept him at 49.9 so I can swap specs ( battery or pbae) but I figure I will level a tank class for mainly pve but figure a bit of pvp when I feel I've died too much on my infil lol with that said some have told me the armsman is a better tank than the pally? My question is why ? The question is what makes them better?

I see both can use sword /shield , 2h and can spec in blocking/parry and I heard pallies got 2.5 skills so made them better than before, is there something I'm missing because pallies have chants that can heal and even res, there must be a defensive passive abilities maybe that make the armsman better at tanking ? Is the armsman much better in pvp? Or should I just forget both and make a friar to get into healing groups or dos with staff.

Thanks in advance for any advice .

Armsman is only better because they are a true fighter and thus have more HPs.

Even if Armsman is the main tank there will be a Paladin off tank in the same group for guard, endo and spec af.

Make which ever one appeals to you more, people will happily take either as a tank if properly specced and templated.
