With new changes...?

[Chris14]

im looking to make a tank and i cant really decide between a shadowknight or a paladin. It seems to me that they both tank quite similar, just one can heal and the other lifetaps? im wondering what kind of changes were made with the last updatese and which makes which more wanted in a group setting and which can solo fairly well. Thanks in advance. ((oh and if you wanan through berserker in there too tahtd be great! =) hah! ))<div></div>

SKs are great at soloing, we're better at duoing and trioing. Grouping though, is pretty close. SKs have a lot more problems with agro management than we do (not sure about now w/ the expansion), but they do get a small mitigation buff. We have our ward, though, which is pretty much the only thing I use when I'm grouping, unless I'm about to go down hard, then I use the rest of the heals. And don't forget LoH to save the stupid DPS who pulled agro.
