Warriors are terrible group tanks.

No snap aggro so you have to wait before debuffing stuff. Can't aggro mobs so that they may be root or mezzed CCd unless you attack them...

Knights will be the preferred tank in most any situation group wise.

I mean what is it with people running their mouths about classes they've never even played? If you have CH what the hell does it matter who is tanking?

And sure Feign Death is a game-changer, but so is Stun. And Root. And Heal. And Lay on Hands. The difference is, one set of abilities greatly enhances your tanking and contributions to a group, and the other doesn't. Lets all make some spreadsheets and try to figure that one out.

What hard group encounters are you doing in velious? Knights were dogshit due to the nature of the content until pop. It's either a single tough mob like vaniki or lodizal or easy mobs which warriors can tank just fine with maybe one click of a root net like ToV trash. Flurry drakes hit hard enough that knights were really not a good option on beta.
