You're simply falling into a trap if you start thinking you have to pick an ogre or else suck at your job. You're free to your opinion though; if picking an Ogre gives you more confidence and makes you think you'll be better at your job, well, then you'll like the character better and do a better job just for that reason alone.

I have to go ahead and argue the opposite here. Being a warrior means you have exactly one job: getting aggro. Stuns interfere with that job, sometimes to a chaotic and deadly degree. As an integral part of the team, this could bring the group down in short order in places where a warrior is a great asset.

It is not easy to gain and hold aggro without expending clickable charges, especially if you suffer an early stun. Ogre avoids the whole issue with excellent statistics, notably the hard-to-stack Stamina.
