Group content is a pushover in this game though. In a group setting you can tank stuff into your 50's as a shaman even if it isn't ideal. With a group behind you, Ranger will be absolutely fine tanking anything.

Anyone can tank anything if it's shaman slowed. Don't mistake this for any group sufficing for group content.

Minus pure cloth casters, same for any slow(Chanter/Bard). With a cleric, probably same deal. So what group build out there doesn't have a shaman, bard, enchanter or cleric?

I dont know if any traditional group builds would exclude those classes. However, you'll commonly see those classes missing from actual group compositions in leveling zones.

I wouldn't be surprised to end up in a Sk/Monk/Dru/Dru/Mage/Wiz group if I show up to Mistmoore and put up LFG

Azeth pointed out, correctly, that not all pug groups are of ideal composition.

Don't mistake bard slow for shaman slow, also. It isn't nearly as good. Enchanter is comparable.

And if you think a cleric alone will keep a ranger up against higher level content... when it is doable, it'll cost a lot of mana and slow you down. Sometimes, it won't be.
