Warriors really are absolute trash outside of raids, and doubly so before they even get high-end weapons with good ratios and proper aggro procs.

Tanking in banded/bronze is just a matter of not foolishly insisting on leveling off of red mobs on a fresh server. That's a player problem.

The Xp is split between the group, hence your going to force them to lvl way slower, and the amount of times I would be in a 6 man group with say a bard or ranger. Those groups got awful xp. I 100% agree Knights crap all over warriors in Classic and in groups. But if your goal is to play with friends when you can, they are probably going to out lvl you unless you 100% play the same times. I spent tons and tons of hours soloing to make sure I kept up with my friends. But again at least SK could solo[You must be logged in to view images.

Lol tanked to 50 in bronze minus like 4 pieces, fighting whites/yellows/red it's doable just not done by the average player. Which again Avg player meaning 80% of p99 player base.
