I don't know who you think you're speaking for bud, but wth rolls a warrior to solo? If you admire those other classes so much -- then roll one, they're right there on your char select screen the same as the rest of us.

You roll a warrior to tank -- period. Please either stop asking to be another class, or at least put a disclaimer in the bottom of your posts saying that you in no way speak for people who play warriors in any mmorpg.
The point is he can't solo "like other tanks".

All the tanks should solo relatively the same and group relatively the same. Same, but with their own unique flavor.

OR

If one class is the WORST solo'er, they should be the BEST in groups.

However, BEST in groups = bad design = EQ.

So, instead, you make them similarly power in groups, similarly powered when solo.

That is the problem he is partially calling out. Tanks are relatively similar in groups. They are not relatively similar when solo/duo/trio (the more the # of people in the group, the less the disparity).

ehhh negative, tanks are NOT similar in groups at ALL.

Paladin has a lot of trouble tanking multiple mobs, has no trouble to keep 1 mob against reckless dps, same time as warrior can tank 1 against semi-reckless dps, can hold 3 with semi-careful dps and 5 and more with very careful dps. DRK can tank 2-3 with semi-careful dps, has trouble holding a mob against reckless dps, but can offtank infinetely a mob nearly without heals (very useful when you got a boss with 2 adds and DRK offtanks a boss while group kills adds)
