Warrior
Warriors are hands-down the best tanks of all classes and arguably also the only viable option as a tank. While the Shadow Knight also can do tanking under many circumstances, it's just not something we recommend doing on EZServer. When creating your Warrior, you may want to consider the size of the race you are picking, since short or tall races can sometimes have a harder time maneuvering. There are however items that can shrink you or cast other NPC illusions on you, so if you really want to be an Ogre, be an Ogre!
The main reason the Warrior is so good for tanking is due to the sheer amount of damage mitigation it can get from items. The Warriors Epic Augment 3.5 and upwards will give you anywhere from 30-50% damage mitigation, the Shield of the Ages will give you 12% and Insane Goblin Halloween Pet will add 17%. If you don't have the Insane Goblin Halloween Pet, you can use the Ultimate Armor Plate Helmet which gives you the same buff as the Halloween Pet does. All this adds up to 79% damage mitigation, higher than any other class on EZServer. You can futher improve your damage mitigation temporarily by using the combat ability Cover, by having a cleric cast The Tower of Vie spells on you and by using a shield like Mechidragon Scaled Armor that drops in Veeshan's Peak
The Warrior should be your first priority when gearing up. Make sure you focus on giving your warrior first dibs on any item he can use that increases survivability, including Citrine Gemstones of Vitality. The Warrior should also be the first tank to get the Ultimate Weapon
Also the ability to keep aggro is important

Warrior Epic List
Warrior Class Epics and Epic Augments 1.0 - 10.0
Epic Effect
The toughness of the warrior is primarily because of their epic's mitigation effect, starting at Epic 3.5 with the following percentages:
- Epic 3.5 - 30%
- Epic 4.0 - 35%
- Epic 4.5 - 35%
- Epic 5.0 - 40%
- Epic 5.5 - 40%
- Epic 6.0 - 45%
- Epic 7.0 - 50%
- Epic 8.0 - 50%
- Epic 9.0 - 50%
- Epic 10 - 50%
The epics also have an aggro multiplying effect, which allows the warrior to more easily keep aggro.
The maximum possible mitigation for a warrior is 78%, which is achieved by using Epic 7.0+, Shield of the Ages 51+(maxing out at 55 or LV), and Insane Goblin Halloween Pet

- Warrior Class Augment 3.0 is the preferred pulling item by many. Same click effect as the Scepter of Time without the 1 second cooldown.
All you need to do is run your warrior through a second line of epics, and throw it in your offhand. RoF2 client will allow you to click this from inside a bag.
