Warriors are useless in 90% of the games content

Why would I bring a Warrior for DPS?

That wasn't the discussion, it's about who in the tank role is doing more damage and thus contributing to the group killing more.

Monk > Warrior > (Ranger if they are a good enough tank for the content) > Shadowknight > Paladin

But besides just the tank role, groups don't always have the option of forming the exact ideal setup. You just take who is available, so it's a question of which class is better on average. Warriors not only contribute more in the tank role on average, they also can serve as DPS while not tanking for a group. Paladins can't do that very well. 2 Warriors in a group is going to kill far more than 2 Paladins, except in the case of the Paladins being the only healers around.
