Warrior dps can be good, just like their aggro can be. They just don’t get both at the same time.

This is all very stupid. No class is losing group slots to another class because the servers have 300-600 people on at any one point.

The age old dilemma to aggro issues is a self correcting problem. Let the drool-rag dps take dirt naps. In most difficult low-man fights if you don’t have a defensive warrior just add a spot healer, like a Druid.

Troxx only came back to post more nonsense it seems. Unfortunate. I am not sure why he thinks anybody cares.

You can see how triggered he is just by looking at his location and signature lol. If anybody disagrees with him or he is wrong about something, he just can't take it.

Maybe knights are better than warriors when mana regen is around, but without mana regen (and in a busy group they may not get the opportunity to med) they get little benefit from their stuns.

At least blood ember offers passable solutions for the core spell lines.

Clickies and FT items go a long way in saving mana. I don't have mana problems in groups, even busy ones. If it's busy, you're killing mobs quickly, which means you don't need to use more expensive spells like lifetap. Just use your cheap agro spells and save mana for a bad situation.

*meant to type “they get little benefit from their spells” not stuns, but I think you figured that out - hopefully other readers will be able to also see past that brainfart!

If just casting aggro spells a hybrid has very little mana burn rate. Also, the likelihood of not having an enchanter or bard or PoTG is very low.

In a normal group unless casting heals, taps, or a ranger having to do excessive rooting/buffing they should be mana neutral.

Just play what you want. Accounts are free. If you get bored, level up all of them.

Outside raid gear and epics DW warriors do crappy dps and have marginal aggro.

Being a sociopath and training zones because you desperately want to min/max XP with a Warrior tank is not a very good look. You can do this kind of pulling with Knights as well.

If your group has enough DPS to consistently do this kind of pulling without downtime, you don't need the Warrior DPS anyway. I've tanked in plenty of non-stop pulling groups. DPS wasn't the issue, respawn timers were.
