I hear this come up a lot, but...

I run mostly pug content and I can confidently say that warriors are broken. Obscenely overpowered. A tank that can w2w while not only keeping themselves healed, but healing other party members should have never been allowed to go live...and after they said they wanted healers to have to heal more.

More and more tanks every day seem to be warriors now(at least half the ones I get at this point), and it's really boring. If I wanted to stand around casting ruin/glare/lasers all day I wouldn't queue as a healer. I often find myself hoping I'll get a really bad tank so I'll actually be able to do my job.

Actually it's only DRK that is currently struggling in dungeons and need alot of healers attention, PLD and GNB have an easy time with W2W pulls too.
If you want to embrace your healer role look for a DRK to tank the dungeon for you I'm sure they'll be happy because usually healers prefer other tanks so they can DPS more and get through the dungeon faster.
Also WAR was able to do that since ShB throughout the whole expansion and we even had mad strong selfheals before that... I don't see them nerfing it now it's not like they suddenly became sustainable in EW.

Also this is the dungeon experience you're talking about things will look vastly different in Savage and Ultimate raids. Tanks can't selfsustain themselves there.
All this talk about DRK being bad in their tank role does not apply in raids as it does in dungeons. (cept for their invuln man LD sure sucks.)

Here are some numbers:

Warrior is the way better than other tanks.

Not entirely correct we're playing DPS Fantasy here where everyone wants to DPS and WAR is #3 in the tank role with DRK and GNB actually being pretty far ahead, we're talking about 10% from 1 to 4.


That being said, they should not nerf the sustain of other tanks but give DRK sustain themselves so they are not the laughing stock in dungeons.
