Anyone else want to roll a gaurdian?

Effectively as it stands,The gaurdian group buff gives them more HPs than us.With the better aa setup with the right weapon they should out dps us.They have better mitigation.they have a shield and more unconested avoidance.guess its time to join soe's favorite class.

different class, different role.I never wanted to MT a raid, it's just not my thing. There's enough competition for the MT spot anyway, let the plate heads fight it out. What I wanted to do in a raid was be useful. I wanted to be able to do some serious DPS, have some buffs that people would notice and actively seek out. I wanted to be useful, to make a difference, and above all be wanted on the raid for my class, rather than just because I happen to be a decent player.I also wanted a pet unicorn. I joined soe's (2nd) favourite class a few months ago. My Dark Elf Swashbuckler is in the late 50s now.

If SOE doesn't think the extra 40 AA's isn't going to effect some classes more then others they are nuts. Considering the new Swashy skill is a hate position transfer and has nothing to do with DPS, all that DPS had to come from CA's and AA's.
