With not enough people playing lancers and warriors are unable to queue, the game needs at least 3 tank classes to make the queue feasable. Waiting for over an hour and spamming chat gets old to the point of not wanting to play

i don't understand why you think the solution is to add a whole new class and not just allow warriors to queue.

I really don't understand why they don't just give Warriors the option TODAY.

Seriously, if you're a warrior and you lack the skill to tank you probably won't queue for tanking; never mind the fact most people roll warriors to DPS.

I'm constantly being punished for playing my class in it's intended role and it's getting REALLY frustrating.

If people wanted to tank they would play lancer. The majority of warriors talking about tanking don't actually want to tank. They want to act like tanks and pew pew damage.

You could add 50 million tank classes to the game and it wouldn't do a damn thing. Ever wonder why every MMO has a tank shortage? Cause people need to see big pew pew numbers or they can't feel big and cool in their fantasy world.

Look at what happened to WoW.

I've seen warriors tank, there's a small number that are good at it but most of them just want to dps. My post stems from the long queue times, over 1 hour? who wants to sit around waiting to queue up . Not everyone is in a guild too

Not every MMO has a tank shortage, I play a lancer and enjoy it. I also play a priest and hate it because I end up out leveling the dungeons and just sit around waiting for someone that either needs a healer or for the queue to pop

I dont play a lancer because i am a completionist and they stupidly tied titles and achievements to the random crappy filler quests scattered around. So i have to do them, all.

I tried a lancer and enjoyed tanking, but it was a hassle doing everything else.

If they removed all quests from the game i would play a lancer.

OP play a lancer get treated like [filtered] by your party for them [filtered] up and see how you feel about playing a tank. This community is so emo and vile you might just quit i wont run pugs anymore because of the dirtbags in mommas basement

I know about 12 retired lancers all rerolled in mid 30s.

We are working on some changes to the warrior so that they can enter the queue. It is going to take some testing so our goal is to release this about the same time as battlegrounds towards the end of summer.

We know it is an issue and we feel your pain on this one but we want to balance it and get things right.
