Default Warrior or SK: which is more fun to level?

Of course I know there is no *objective* answer. Just curious to hear your experiences. Mostly looking at the 1-60 experience. And yes, imo feeling powerful rather than gimped is part of the fun (ogre master race for life).

I liked my warrior more than my SK, but in terms of "fun" I think having access to spells including invis, feign death, levitate or snare, fear... probably makes the SK more "fun if that's the question. My SK was much more self-dependent, solo-able and flexible.
Warrior is a much more straightforward beast... I truly enjoyed 1-30 but I couldn't go through the infamous 30-52 where you just suck at everything (pull, tank, travelling, solo, dps... name it, you suck). Supposedly at 52+ you start feeling the power. I might level her up again if I ever feel like it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

TLDR to answer your question, my vote goes to Shadow Knight

I tanked just fine from lvl 30-52 on my 3 warriors. And now they're lvl 60 and 52 x 2.

Myeah - I think it is very gear dependant, and even then you can't hold aggro against the Flash of Light or Disease Cloud boyz.

I did tank as well. This is the only thing a warrior can do hehe. I just don't think it tanks the best at 30-52. I understand it is different in raid situations, but you don't raid at 30-52.

Depends what you like. If you want to be a great tank the SK is weak... its only advantage is spell aggro. But SK can be fun for other reasons (fear kite soloing, fd pulling, circlet insta-invis).

I have a 45 war and a 44 SK. I enjoyed the Warrior more. That being said. Paladins are better than either IMO. I have a 59 Paladin.

Paladins are made of paper and tears.
