SK vs Warrior in Velious?

[SCB]

Warriors are the second-worst melee for tanking in a leveling group. Their aggro management is terrible and literally nothing you can 1-group requires warrior durability over a knight, and almost nothing requires a knight over a monk/ranger.


In Kunark, 95%+ of the game is 1-grouping. For grouping in Kunark, top 3 group tanks (in order) are:
1: Paladin
2: SK
3: Ranger/Monk tied assuming the monk isnt a fungi/epic twink, in which case monk is 1st

In Velious, 90%+ of the game is 1-grouping. In Velious, top 3 group tanks (in order) are:
1: Monk
2: Paladin
3: SK

If you can't keep up even a moderately geared ranger/monk against some random KC mob, you're a terrible healer.

People bitch and moan about hybrids this and min/max that but it's all a bunch of crap. Just play a class you like. You'll be playing it for 100+ days of your life easily.
