Totally subjective status of tanks from my experience:

WAR: Self healing machine. Lots of mits.
GNB: Decent mits, quite decent DPS.
PLD: Lots of resources for any situation. Decent mits.
DRK: I have a sword. Big one. That's it.

Seriously what have they done to DRK? Almost non viable as tank, boring to play and end of DPS and mitigation spectrum. TBN does not fix it. It is the BARe minimum to be a tank, though a very ill performing one.
How does WAR have "lots of mits" but Paladin/Gunbreaker only have "decent mits", I'd argue that both tanks have ever so slightly better mitigations and the main reason why warrior has the overall best kit is because Holmgang is very short making it the best invul by a mile.

Dark Knight also has solid mitigation their issue is that some of it only works in magic and it lacks sustain compared to other tanks. I think the best thing we can do for Dark Knight which makes sense is make it a top DPS pick for tanks and add more attacks in future expansions because currently its rotation is very boring.
