Is there one? Im just not sure what my role in the future will be, and its kind of disheartening. Where do we fit in "the vision"? Ive been playing since launch day, and every 5 LUs or so, our job seems to change. Its fine by me really, but it just doesnt seem that there is that "master plan" for us. 
 
Maybe its because im in a small guild with real life friends, I dont get a chance to do much high end raiding. (If all of our high level players are on all at the same time (yeah right), we can make exactly one full group, but not really that balanced, @ Bruiser (67), SK(65), Wizard(63), Assassin(61), Inq(67), Warden62)) We didnt intentionally have 2 people make healers, everyone created what the really WANTED to play, and i feel were fortunate in that aspect.
 
We were a huge secondary "adjustment" with the proc change to Rangers, and, with LU21, they are getting a bump back in dps, which is fine. I assume "someone" will eventually get to looking at our class.
 
The problem that I have is this. Im finding it hard to find a group at times. A large majority of the time, people prefer plate tanks, which is fine, I guess, but people seem to be filling groups according to a "cookie cutter" Tank-DPS-DPS-Utility (Read:Coercer)-Healer-Healer. Now, I dont get in a group as a tank unless there are none to be found. People "deal" with me as MT, then find out "zomg, bruisers actually can tank xp groups".
 
 Ok, so I have a hard time finding a group, make my own right? Ok. Ive had numerous people blind drop the group after finding out that A. im MT, or B. I only look for one healer. Also, most groups actively seek out a SECOND healer. (as previously mentioned above) Why? Has the quality of player gone down SO MUCH that a second healer is needed?
 
Yeah, so this post is kind of random, but I cant be the only one that feels like this.
 
BTW: The best group ive ever been in was Bruiser-Bruiser-Bruiser-Monk-Monk-Inquis. Can you say Buzzsaw? Heh.
