first character tank - should I even bother?

[shuklak]

up to the 20's I cannot imagine people turning away a tank because of the exp penalty. it makes no sense when usually it's a case of "if we get a tank we can do this camp, otherwise we just sit around and take something sub-par."

maybe at the high end where a few people are together and want to "seriously" exp would they consider foregoing a hybrid. but at least until then I've had more ranger tanks than war/pal/sk.
