Stamina Warden or Stamina Templar for Solo & Group PvE?

Hellcleave
Greetings all,

What would be a good first class to start for mostly solo & group PvE?

Which class has better solo capabilities and is welcomed in group content?

Which one would make an easier tank to learn?

I'm interested in getting some feedback on both classes from experienced players, before I take the lunge and start the long grind.

Thanks in advance for any help :)

    Seems this is a duplicate topic. I've given the explanations why Warden is better here:

    I would go with stam warden currently it's really good for 4 man dungeons with amazing group support and pretty good sustain. You can get the stam morph of fungal growth, which is soothing spores and that will make pve easy early on. I can solo group events in public dungeons with it as a dps, just make sure to heavy attack with it to regen stamina.

    Wardens make better tanks than templars. If you're set on tanking (especially harder content), don't be a templar. Stamplars have much better DPS than stamwards, however. Both are just fine in solo PVE/quest content.

    Dps: i mained stamina templer since morrowind dropped and the support they give from power of the light is enough to make them valuable in the group combined with high aoe due to ulti and jabs and a very good single, besides they free a skill slot on healers bar.
    Tank: warden is better, they simply provide better support, and have better sustain in boss and adds situations.
