Well taunt is pretty stupid but does occasionally work and is instant. Monks peeling with melee aggro is not the same and totem clicks are limited. Assuming a warrior can’t peel at all isn’t fair.
Most grind groups are not difficult. Split up the roles. Who pulls, who takes hits, who heals, who CC’s (if needed, usually root will suffice). Whether you have a ranger with 2.2k unbuffed or a warrior with 4500 if someone is wiping in The Hole it’s probably the drool on the keyboard over the class composition.
If left to pick I like solid aggro locks over dps taking splash damage, unless you have a bard or something. Quicker slows. The elitism of getting your pick is ridiculous though unless your buddy has a knight AND a warrior with the ambivalence to play either class.
