If you prefer melee, roll a tank. Most tanks (especially the Ironbreaker) are currently OP. Just be safe and roll one, chances are that you won't regret it. ----------------------------- Ted Treffon: I don't represent Hardbodies. Ted Treffon: No, I don't represent that either. |

If you prefer high melee dps dont roll a tank. If you prefer moderate melee dps and higher survivability roll a tank. The tank roll is to get in there first and hope for heals so he can get the enemy lines in trouble but not by damaging just by debuffing and blocking (colission) enemy players and holding the line of the enemy melees to not get to the rangers/healers in the back. Most tanks are just fine though not overpowered anyway. I agree that Iron breaker seems abit overpowered cause it has crazy survivability and pretty high damage for a tank but the rest are just right. |

all you gotta do to stop a ironbreakers dps is deny him grudge, they get grudge when you hit them and their grudge buddy (probably his healer or next nearest ironbreaker) when they have full grudge from being hit they do their high dps, when they have no grudge because you ignore them and kill the brightwizards and healers first their dps is laughable. just my personal observations from playing but ya a grudgless ib hits me for about 25% of what a pissed off full of grudge one could in the same gear =D dont hit the lil bastard till ur ready to kill him flat out hehe |

Tanks are not OP. In fact, mauraders can kill tanks. The truth is most players are simply horriblle players, sad to say. I picked up quick on the shaman ability that does damage while you move and guess what? People still die to it all the time.
Tanks want to be hit. That is what they crave and what they are designed to do. And then people do it and complain. Funny, eh?
Mauraders are a great class and like all melee dps require thought to play. In fact most of the classes except ranged dps (just a little bit, it is not like they really easy to play simply easier) do. People come in with a WoW mentality and then get raped. Personally, I get -really- surprised when a Maurader attacks me, especially since I am a shield Swordmaster. They have no right to complain if they lose because I chose to excel against melee damage, but neither do I if I lose because then I know they chose to counter me by exceling at killing tanks.
And no, it is not rock-paper-scissors. That statement is made out of ignorance. The closer truth is in 1 v 1 you never know who will win unless you decide to spec against a particular playstyle. For example, I can kill casters despite them being my "weakness". And still I have lost to mauraders. It really depends on a lot, a dash of luck, player skill (reaction, timing, ect), and how you are speced (gear/mastery/renown talent). As far as melee dps classes go, if that is your thing maurader will not dissapoint and they are an interesting class that gets some cool armor. If I was Destruction I might be tempted to play one, actually.
Here are some high level armor for each class, note how nice Mauraders look and their different mutations. (Note these are a bit old and the game does not have High-res textures in yet. This is expected to be enabled during Open Beta.)
