Hi i want to create a gnome warrior not to tank but just dps with a fist of zek/wyrmslayer or wyrm/wyrm - (will have RGB) gonna have mostly str/dex focus items instead of ac/hp. I would stay under 40% the whole time for the group to maximize the dps.
If you saw in shout: "Gnome DPS Warrior LFG NO TANKING" Would you...
reroll a Halfling DPS Warrior. You get an exp bonus plus you can HIDE!

Too bad it doesn't work like evade though haha...

Oh, I thought the thread called dps warriors was about warriors tanking...

My point is, who gives a fuck if a warrior gets aggro? Yeah, you lose DPS, but now you're tanking. Either way, you're being useful to the group. A rogue tanking is worthless, which is why they need to be able to dump aggro. If a warrior can tank and do dps, why is it bad for him to do both? I don't choose between being a buffing and a healing cleric.
The critical hits are huge dmg bonus, if the war gets aggro repeatedly why would you want a DPS warrior in your group instead of a rogue? Also, if your trying to keep the warrior in the critical health range they could die if they get aggro.
