That'll have been because your ranger friend was better geared or higher level. There's no mechanic that makes rangers easier to heal than plate tanks. Normally it'd be the opposite, but obviously this can be changed by gear. Rangers will tank worse than all plate classes and possibly monks (though monks can have a hard time holding aggro) and anecdotal evidence like the above is pretty useless. Of course a ranger doesn't tank better than a warrior by default.

Yep, thanks for your input. I covered my statement that you quoted just after had you read a little bit more. also as stated the ranger wasnt always the easiest to heal. My point overall, in case that escaped you, was that the answer is yes to the OP question.
