Thank you for the response and the info.
Though I am very well aware of the mechanics of playing a warrior through to lvl 60, maybe not on p99 specifically but I did play one during the timeframe that p99 is emulating. Good players who know their class can do well with a warrior in either DPS or Tank mode. It may be simpler for the knight classes to tank and the other melee classes to DPS but that doesn't mean they are any more effective than a good Warrior.

As I said in another recent post here...I can only recommend warrior if you're determined to put in a lot of time and resources. They scale amazingly well with gear...but levels 1-55 (arguably 1-60) is going to be not nearly as enjoyable.
You will be expected to tank, but won't have the threat generating capabilities of a SK or Paladin. You'll be frustrated spamming taunt on a mob that is more interested in going for the shaman/enc that just slowed it for you.
If you don't want to tank, ever...then go rogue. If you want to lead groups with pulls and keep the flow of XP in sync with the groups vitals + preparedness, go monk. If you want to soak damage, hold aggro, and offer some utility to your groups without being too gear dependent, go Pally or SK.
Hope that helps.
