People complain about the class too much frankly. We aren't an underdog at tanking or DPS, people just like to claim we are - who knows why; to mask their poor performance, receive an unnecessary class buff, lack of knowledge of other classes or just because people like complaining. Prot is great, survivable, varied, interesting, threat generation is excellent if you know what you're doing - a little behind prot paladins, but they're taking a nerf next patch to no doubt bring them more in line so threat will be pretty stable across the board between classes. Fury PvE DPS... well I can put out up to the 6k mark on a fair few fights in my offspec'd gear, it's a far cry from the "omg broken class" that everyone seems to be crying lately. Arms I won't comment on, I've not really played it since changing my secondary to fury about 2.5 months ago.

This. QFT.
Who does remember DKs whining about how they suck at dps or tanking (
even before the recent nerf to this class
)? I remember... been there, done that (
well maybe
I
didn't complain myself...
)
But back on topic
On my server there are very few warriors (
and rogues
) - compared to other classes that is. 70% of instances I do, are tanked by a paladin, 20% by a DK. I haven't seen a druid tank since 3.0 came out.
Right now I have a warrior tank buddy, with whom I do few runs every now and then and I must say I love when warriors tank.
So
you
should play a warrior, because I hate Paladins, DKs... and BElves, especially Palaidn and DK.

granted I am still only low level (just went 23) but hey who can't love simply charging that badass boss, popping up retaliate (or is it revenge? the battle stance one at any rate) and proceeding to cleave like crazy before switching to repeated rends as the target gets low enough that they try to run off? that automattically giving back 1 attack for every atack made on you within 12 seconds plus your normal attacks is just massive epic win.
I may not have the world's greatest gear for my warrior but I still love being able to bash stuff to bits :D
I should mention I did pretty much exactly that against an elite monster today that was a couple of levels higher than I am, soooo much fun, and SUCH a close battle too :D (one of those where ti could have gone either way).

No other class can shine on the Faction Champions quite like a warrior. Let's say the hunter npc is hitting one of your healers, you charge him, zipping across the arena and stunning him temporarily, then concussive blow to stun him again, then when it wears off intervene whomever he is shooting at, zipping across the arena, then intercept back to the hunter, zipping back across the arena.

On my prot warrior I've lost count of the number of times I've had multiple mobs beating on me and fully expecting to die, wondering whether to "waste" a health pot or not, done it and walked away from a pile of bodies a minute or two later.
I have lots of alts of all different classes, and they all have their own great abilities, but the warrior is the only one that has regularly survived encounters that I thought I was dead meat.
