They want tanks not warriors. Wars suck at holding agro.

They dont want exp pen.

What is left? Pets

Mage nerfed... so necro pets.

Melee is hard to find anyway so dont invite them and you are good with pet tanks and casters.

My experience, we want any dps, any tank any healer. I never see any group skipping class nor speaking of exp penalty.

So the Pet classes is the new meta tank class right? Will they be able to tank all the way to 50?

Also, how rare is seeing a Ranger or Bard on your server?

Everquest being nothing but shamans and enchanters is classic(tm)

mage pet tanks just as good as a "tank class" in rags as long as everyone is paying attention and has basic knowledge of aggro mechanics.
if you can get the pet to last the fight the regen is insane compared to a player. that mechanic makes pets better tanks as long as they can last the fight with minimal mana input.

End of the world, pack it up, wipe it clean.

If it's hard to find groups it's because most folks (including myself) prefer to mainly solo or duo and usually don't care to invite more. It might be a 1999 game, but it's not a 1999 community.

I decided to play a shaman this time around and I find myself playing as a discount palladin 90% of the time.
Tanking with flash of light feels too familiar.
Root is nice to have though

You can definitely be 20+, the problem is that most people prefer to just sit around LFG waiting for the ultimate group to just fall in their lap. The trick is that you sometimes need to form your own group. Do w alls lfg around your level range and start sending tells. Just like mostly everything else in life, if you want it done you need to do it yourself.

This is also true. Spent some time in befallen today LFG as a shaman. Then a chanter popped in so we duo'ed...so now we have a weird setup where chanter pulls, takes a hit so pet adds, and then I DoT and tank, as a shammy. Then we randomly get a cleric and another enchanter who was high enough to charm and suddenly we have a group rocking and rolling. It ain't perfect, but you CAN'T expect perfection right now. Unless you ARE one of the brave souls who rolled a pally or SK.
