Warriors are useless in 90% of the games content

I mean, yeah, you don't "need" snap aggro. It's just really nice for your group to have.

You don't "need" your tank to have FD, but it opens up potential camps. You don't "need" stuns on your tank, but having stun, taunt, and being incredibly tanky is godsend for a potential charming Enchanter. That's not mentioning the other utility that increases quality of life for you and your group.

Having that is better for a 6-man group than a bit of extra tankiness and DPS. I don't care if you can babysit the Warrior's crappy aggro -- the knights just bring more to the table in a small group scenario.

This is why sks are the best group tank imo.

Not anymore. Pre-disease cloud nerf? Maybe. Feels way worse now though.

Warriors do more dps and if you need hybrid abilities you’re probably not playing well enough.

At 60 with a ToV 2h in a dps role the gap widens a lot. A warrior levelling up with EC tunnel aggro 1h’s though vs a knight with a Reaver?

No tank is there for DPS. In a group the Ench pet will do multiples times more. Just do your one job well.

I feel like more stuff on live fled at low health than on p99. Having snare was almost necessary. Also less charm pets in groups so that last 20% took a longer chase.

Nothing wrong with a SK or any other tank. Just an observation I made with my ranger too.

As an SK I will say Paladin is a better group tank for most groups.

As both my pally worked better, toolkit is nice and mana is cheaper than sk, I prob had more fun on sk tho.
