I am still staying in touch with these boards. I didn't sell off any of my warriors gear and I still have all his money on him. One day if they fix it I will come back. But I like Apsu rely on the warrior class to be what it is supposed to be to play vanguard. I played a Wizard in EQ for years. Rolled up a warrior alt, loved him so much I switched to him as an MT on raids in an upper end guild.

I loved the warrior class been playing one ever since. The fact is this. I shouldn't have to re-roll to be happy. I shouldn't have to suffer to play a class. In EQ each class had its strong points and weak points. But there raid strategy and group strategy made each class unique in there own little area.

Going into vanguard I was completely optimistic. I knew right away there would be things that needed worked on. I was patient. Getting 3 months into patch and all they have done to us warriors is nerf nerf nerf. We got like 15 new things in one patch....not one of those was what any of us have been hoping for. And here we set. Strugling to get groups inferior to DK and Pally by what they bring to the table.

Mitigation isn't that big of a deal in defensive I could take a severe beating...but so can a pally and DK. So why shouldn't a group take a Pally with awesome AC buffs and partial healing and all the things they bring to the table. Im not sure but they have a blind or least they used too that worked like a mez as long as the mob isnt touched. DK's have very nice aggro and debuffs and offer just as much as pally's do.

Our 8 second buffs that don't really do much make us very inferior. As for people with guilds and friends yes it might not be bad because you are there tank. You aren't out trying to make those friends and get into the guild that you speak of. You are already there. For those that aren't...its miserable.
