Best Warrior Race?

[frefaln]

Just out of curiosity I'd like to hear more first-hand info from players that have rolled tanking classes which utilize Sneak. There are a few wide-open zones where (as a Rogue) just Sneak was enough, but in almost any place worth hunting (Sol A, within Mistmoore Castle, depths of Guk), I needed to Sneak-Hide to get anywhere. A lot of static mobs spawn in pairs and are positioned to face each other from opposite corners, so while your Sneak allows you to get behind one you're simultaneously in frontal view of another.

I can't imagine a tank being able to Sneak very far without blowing his cover, but I'd love to hear how I'm wrong. Details, please!
