What if Tank classes could only meatshield?

The rotation for warrior at least is more engaging than the DPS roles I've played to 60 so far since I have to not only do damage rotations, but use mitigation CD's and Self heals at the right moment, all while stance dancing (or at least as close as I can get to Stance dancing). Now, I can't say it's the same for Plds or even DRK, but warriors can have pretty interesting gameplay challenges.

You really should use more objective words to describe WAR gameplay. You call it interesting, I call it "too many buttons to push". Partly why I'm not fond of how WAR plays and prefer PLD. *shrug*

Though if you want to look at it a certain way, the reason WAR's gameplay feels more enganging to you is most likely because keeping Storm's Path up along with Maim and managing Wrath stacks feels more direct (in terms of benefits and what it does for you as a whole) and not "complex for the sake of complexity", which is something you see in DPS jobs at 60. Also helps that you don't have positional requirements to worry about.
