Sk vs warrior with donator- whats better for a group

Post#1 » Tue Jun 07, 2011 7:42 pm

Alright, I'm coming back to playing after a hiatus, and am trying to decide between rolling an sk or a warrior as my tank. I'll probably get a donator, but am just wondering what would be the better way to go.

I know warrior has better dps, but an sk w/ donator seems very difficult to kill. I want something that will allow me to kill the most content by myself, because I don't really have time to raid much these days. Just wondering what would be the better way to go cause I've watched sk's+donator damn near solo TOV.

The rest of the group will probably be a shaman, cleric, and either a ranger or a mage.

Any input?

I'd recommend warrior, just because with only a 4 box you're going to really struggle on the DPS end. Your fights will take *forever* 4 manning with an sk tank and 2 healers.

it's true. the only real advantage to SK is ae aggro and yu pay a lot of dps for it.

warrior is always the safer route.

if i were to run a 4box with an sk - id only use 1 heal, honestly tho i find that, while i LOVE warriors - there are plenty of times where i wish i had some True AE threat (cyclone blade/ramp doesnt count) basically it comes down to a playstyle choice imo - if u are confident with the warrior solo go for it, but consider the AE taunts and stuff the Sk (or even pally) would have too.

if you 4 box with a donor tank, i'd go sk / clr / rng / (bard, another rng, or wiz) sk donor is a heck of a clicky heal, on top of cler heals should be good especially if your 2 dps boxes are ranged

Paladin can cast (self-buff proc?) aoe hate with far greater frequency thank SK with current t7 and below spells. As an SK primary this is one aspect of Paladin I envy. Wave heal+cure is pretty sweet for Paladin too.
