Warriors can overcome pretty much all of their shortcomings on this server. If you are looking to group someone should be able to root. Get the mobs rooted and stand closest for 100% proximity agro. GG you just overcame your threat issues while preventing runners at the same time. You can also obtain rechargable agro clickies. I carry bags full of these on my war allowing for snap agro and some clutch CC in a pinch. That said warriors are hugely gear dependant and are probably not ideal to play up to 60 for your first class. Doable but not ideal. Warriors also get invis clickies, tash sticks, snare whip, and for mobilization get jboots, ot hammer and wc cap like everyone else at high level. With fungi and some decent haste/weapons warriors can solo into the 50s at a decent pace and slower beyond that. Bring bandaids.
My recomendation to you would be the SK. Less gear dependant to group up to 60. Has the ability to solo up to 60 (may be quite slow). Probably has a bit more potential to solo cash camps than a warrior at high level. Harder timefinding groups than warriors due to xp penalty being shared by the group. But you get access to all the tricks from spells rather than clickies and expensive gear.
Either are viable but sk would be able to solo a few mobs while looking for a group easier than a non twinked warrior.
Edit: I really cannot express enough love for the warrior. Depending on what your goals are in game you can also access hide and sneak, allowing for sneak pulling in some areas. This is probably the one area that an SK will always outshine a warrior: pulling. Dont forget warriors also get access to a slow procing 2 hander adding even more utility to their kit. Oh and did I mention stun? 55+ kick stuns. If you see a caster/healer casting, spin around and kick him in the back for 100% chanceto interrupt. Done correctly you can lock down a low hp mob trying to heal or spare yourself that 800+ hp nuke to the face.
Sure all warriors get baseline is kick and and taunt but they have huge potential late game.
