OT: As already said, play what you want. But if you have no preferences, then play a tank (means focus on guard and CC, not damage).

Thanks again all,
I have rolled an Archmage, KOTBS and Brightwizard. Leveled in that order.
I am jumping in and out of each, enjoying the tanking. Its fun not being squished as soon as you get in a bit of agro, even at low level, as long as you stay in site of the healers . Although disheartening not getting results on the healing or damage charts in the scenarios. It was how I used to measure my worth.
It would be interesting to have a damaged absorbed column or something.

One of the reasons I dropped my IB at 15 and stuck with Slayer. It's an ego boost when you see the deathblows and damage done on a slayer but when you are doing your job with IB, guarding and punting, you don't see the rewards.

Dunno, my IB usually was 1st on damage and kills at SCs in the T1 )))

if you judge your worth as an IB by a factitious summary on a scenario board, and not: by the enemy tanks you bitch, the challenges and interrupts, the snaring you do, keeping your teammates alive so that you can win, the fact that you can CONTROL the battlefield if you're good enough...then lul.

DPS have damage, Healers have healing. Tanks have the scenario score. If your team wins, its because of you, the tank. We ain't not needing damage or healing or absorb scoreboard.
