WAR fits that build for me since it's a beefy tank, a substantial dps, and controls its own HP pool with self heals. After playing the class so long, most other classes feel boring or just don't offer the same control over a fight. For that reason I also play Scholar as my secondary. Even though it's a great healer class, I find that I can be useful doing dps or utility while my faerie handles most content.
It's kind of amusing that I was the reverse. I like playing support-style roles most of the time, but I also like helping with DPS and such where I can. Shadow and Smite-Healing Discipline Priest in WoW are a good example of this and I enjoyed mine before I left that game. So, SCH filled that niche here really well for me - I heal, but I also am providing DPS mostly in DoTs that I just have to refresh every now and then. And leveling SCH got me SMN as well, which is all the DoTs without the healing and the added bonus of LASERS.
Meanwhile, I started with PLD as my first tank - and Chachan remains one mostly due to his character - but out of the three, I really do like WAR most (and it's why it's my tank of choice on Gogon). And basically for the same reasons you described, Sounsyy. Solid tank, solid DPS, and a bit of self-sufficiency for when the healer can't keep up for whatever reason.
