Warrior pretty much the Go-To tank for now.

Clemency is without outside buffs, healing for the same as equilibrium (fact--there are posts and pics of it hitting around 2.7K at level 58 and scaling off strength and weapon damage). You can cast it twice without any pause (also a fact) and you recover enough mana to cast it again after 1 sheltron and riot blade combo. If you look at your math before, half was from one ability, which is something a paladin can spam in a jiff, and something that is effected by cova (which paladins have a better version of. There is no defensive cd warriors have an improved version of that matters, given foresight is a joke). If you think IB heals mean anything in raiding, then I laugh at you--IB is used strictly for its 20% debuff before a tank buster (you should be topped off before that). It honestly sounds like you are speaking from dungeon experience, which means nothing in raiding.

I've actually critted for over 6.5k with Clemency (no Convalescence) at level 60 with 180 weapons. The best part about critting someone else for 6k+ is that I also gain back 3k+ hp myself. If we're at a point where I'm having to heal another party member, it almost goes without saying that I'm probably hurting for HP as well. Clemency is an incredibly strong support skill and despite the high mana cost I can keep using it just by spamming Sheltron off cd (restores 700+ mana) and throwing in some Riot Blade combos. Sheltron itself is an amazing cooldown considering that tank busters tend to lean toward physical damage. An automatic block once every 30 seconds is pretty strong, plus that 700+ mana restored is nothing to sneeze at. I'm really enjoying the enhanced utility that paladins have with the new skills. ^^

As far as warrior goes, I'm expecting to see Raw Intuition's auto crit heals get fixed and Fell Cleave to get beat with the nerf stick. A warrior on my server supposedly routinely hits for 11k+ with it, which just seems ridiculous. >.>
