What do you guys think is the best tank class? Pals get there self rezs which is pretty sweet. sks get invis/sow and can steal life. and warriors....they get to dual wield..i guess. so which one would you rather have in your group?

Paper tank nto only refers to those DD tanks that can't take a hit it also refers to those clueless morons who can't hold multiple agros.

My choices?

First is Warrior, because MOST(not all) people who play this class know they are a meat shield.

Second is Paladin, maybe I just haven't met enough of these.

Third is Ranger/Bard, if they are built to tank.

Dead last is Shadow Knight, this is where 90% of the snobish paper tanks come from. Just because they can solo mort yellows and a few reds they think that with a group behind them they can just whip everything in sight worry free, and that's just how they are too, worry free. They don't worry if they taunt/bait or whatever their skill is called, hell I bet they can't tell you what the skill is called. If I am ever forced to group with one I will send a tell to the healer to watch me and rip agro from the SKs inept hands every time. Yes there are some that I have seen do a good job and I have some friends that play them and I HOPE they do a good job. I'm not disrespecting their ability to DD/manage agro, it's just that this is a very good solo class so I have a feeling these guys grow too fast without gaining good group experience. If I offended you then GOOD that probably means what I have said applies to YOU.
