warrior in raids, Kunark and Velious

[Vexenu]

A few relevant points:

1) Warriors have a much easier time raising MR than Monks and to a lesser extent Rogues (ex: Skull-shaped Barbute, Runed Bone Fork, BS mantle is +30 MR right there from three easy to get items)

2) Weighted Axe is only usable by large races, the best an Iksar Warrior could do for jousting until getting an Oggok Cleaver would realistically be a Staff of Battle (31/37) or even an Executioner's Axe (25/50)

3) Effectively PvPing with a Rogue requires the highest jousting skill of any melee to properly time backstabs ("frontstabs")

That being said, Warriors are probably the scariest PvP class at high end and always an excellent group PvP class due to their survivability and damage output. And yes, a decently geared Warrior can put out reasonably good DPS, so they aren't totally useless if not tanking on a raid.
