Unless i missed something, i didnt see anything and our jobs just got harder. I lost agro to the druids three times tonight offtanking at Proteus. That has never happened before. I always switch mobs and taunt and damage each one to make sure i keep agro. I was losing agro on mobs i damaged about 10-15%. The main tank seemed to be okay. Everybody else's ability to gain agro just went up but the tanks stayed the same.

I don't think anything has changed. That's always been the way for us. Most the time our off tank doesn't lose agro but occasionally it happens even though we're not doing anything differently

U know OTM has no intention to give anything good for warriors, neither tanks or dps ones, so u can only vent here. Sadly, theres nothing for tanks nor has been in a long time.

Warrior class is the red headed stepchild of OTM. Get used to it.

Only thing I can think of is now tanks can do there own damage, and that bandage wounds is abit more viable when doing things on your own. besides that, even druids out dps warriors now.

thats why they dominated from update 1 until 3? lol.
Warriors have always been a great class for starters and still remain the cheapest class to lix up to endgame.

Thats an opinion. Besides, I thought u said rogues always dominated.

Are you for some reason equating domination with best DPS?

Rogues have generally got kills throughout the whole game from 2011- now, certain bosses such as aggragoth however have always been more susceptible to casters in which case usually a well geared mage could get the kill.

dominated how? pvp? lolz
warriors have the least variety of builds, going hybrid simply gimps your char. tanks can't kill anything without swapping every gear. dps warriors without shield bash should just level up a rogue char. it's a very one dimensional class, and no OTM employee plays a high level one. Even Wulver played a tank in Beta without Taunt. just goes to show how well they know (and ignored) the class.
In last several events, I imagine a convo that went something like this:
Dev 1: What gear should we make for warriors this time?
Dev 2: Just give them Giant Swing and Sweeping Blow. Warriors love those!
Don't even get me started on 4 armor Warcry helms from Hrung
