Warrior tanking

Hi,

Alright this isnt a warrior vs paladin thread, i just really want to know if warrior will be able to tank anything a Glad can, Yes sometime it may be more risky and a bit harder, but i would hate to see myself ONLY be offtank in most raids and groups or raids not wanting me to main tank because ( It isnt the Warr primary roll ). We take more dmg but also have lifesteal and a higher HP pool along with better dps, i like the active play style of the class so far would hate to switch because one is more wanted/needed.

Thanks for your insight

Warriors are tanks. They're not any worse at it than GLD/PLD. Their style is different, being soak & self-heal rather than mitigation, but they are not off-tanks.

Warriors live on the edge...of their axe!

When it comes to 4man and 8man content, There will likely be areas when one tank is preferred for a boss, but either can tank it (assuming item level appropriate gear).

When 24man stff comes out I expect some bosses will require a WAR and some will require a PLD main tank.
