At higher levels it is flat out a matter of gearing. My rogue could tank better than just about any non-end game equipped tank on the server. Agility plus some decent AC and a LOT of HP plus ridiculous amounts of hate generated makes for a very effective tank.

I merely was talking about using disciplines on big boy mobs that would 1 shot most people. There are many situations where a monk or rogue can be just as effective as a real tank....because they simply do not get hit as often.

Your statement was

I can tell you there are all kinds of people that THINK they can tank as a Ranger, Bard, Rogue, even a Monk, but in the end they are a horror show to heal compared to a real Warrior, SK, or Paladin trust me.
and I am just telling you that is not true. On a raid mob, it is probably a good idea (although the first ever kill of a dragon in EQ...before Nagy was buffed up....was tanked by a rogue).
