Sorry, but there is a slight problem with everyone here who says guardians are fine, at level 24 why was I forced to tank for a group doing a named for a quest because the 22 guardian was getting 3 shotted?

Killing the named orc commander in Commonlands I had to tank for a 22 guardian on a green tri-up arrow mob to me at 24. why is this? a Gaurdian is out tanked by a warden 2 levels higher? Im not even a [Removed for Content] guardian and I see the problem with this, do the people who are saying guardians are fine, only saying this because they played a tank class that was broken for the time before CU and now they just want guardians to suffer the same pain? How about instead, we try to help all classes get balanced so that the game is fun for everyone? huh? Novel idea.

Guardians are not "ok", I constantly tank mobs with my warden when a guardian in the group is lower level then I am because I can tank the mobs better. Im sorry but as a warden im loving it, but as a healer its kinda lame dont you think?

Part of this is probably him not having a solid idea on how to tank... We can hold aggro fine if people follow common group rules, like assisting you, not ice cometting on incoming, etc.

And yes I agree with you wardens do suck atm, at least you can tank...with guardian buffs.
