The concept of warriors being bad in group parties just doesn’t compute for me.

If I don’t root the mob, I can’t sit down. I need to be able to sit down, so I root mobs. Often times or preemptively, especially if I plan to malo/slow them.

Even when I’m playing my enchanter I notice the clerics in my group frequently casting root on mobs I’m in the process of mezzing. It’s hard for me to believe that warriors are tremendously suffering from aggro. I think it’s more likely that warriors are suffering from bad groups where rogues stand too close to mobs, magicians over nuke, and support classes simply don’t root mobs??
From playing my warrior, what i see is that the other melees I group with often have much better weaponry, or they cast spells(paladin/sk) to intentionally take the agro. And rogues have their backstabs that usually take agro. So its not the fault of the warrior. My gear is pretty decent, but most of the random ppl I group with are super twinked/hasted. Its actually rare to find ppl who arent.
