Now, I can't say it's the same for Plds or even DRK, but warriors can have pretty interesting gameplay challenges.
And I made my comments from playing the tanks. War rotates through 3 combos without thought and hits typically the same skill every time they get 5 stacks. You don't have to manage stacks, consider the timing of a recast, adjust the rotation based on procs or the availability of certain resources or even really care about what damage type is incoming. Granted no class is particularly interesting and engaging but tanks really don't have much to think about. Heck most of the time the tank doesn't even need to be concerned with the fight mechanics, they just sit there beating on it. I think it's most indicative of a design flaw that so many are saying they don't care one bit about tanking and just want to dps on their tank.
