You can replace restoring hit points with reducing damage if the reducing damage version is overwhelmingly more powerful than restoring hit points.But every single damage mitigation model that anyone has suggested requires the player to have precognition. If the attacker doesn't hit the damage prevention is wasted. If the attacker hits the wrong person proactive damage prevention doesn't work.And this is a flat misrepresentation.No one I've seen is saying the warlord has to be as good at standing people up who have already fallen as the cleric. What is being said is that the warlord must be able to stand up people who have fallen. The Paladin can also stand up people who have fallen - but no one would say that they can stand them up as well as the Cleric. Just that they can do it.Now we're going to get into a hit point argument.The poll has people who hate the very idea of the warlord answering it. It also has the majority of people not saying none.</blockquote>
