Viability of Templar tanks

HammerxofxLight
I'm almost lvl 50 on a Templar, and I was wondering on their viability in the tank role. Should I just roll and DK or can Templars tank the highest available content in pve?

    While it is possible to tank end game on a Templar, it's a lot easier to tank endgame on a dk in my opinion, and as it doesn't take very long to both level a new character and alliance skill lines (you'll need aggresive warhorn) i would personally just roll a dk.

    Templar healing and tanking go hand in hand. Work to a class' strengths, and you'll perform well. DKs are great at mitigation and resource management. While they are easier, temp magic or hybrid tanks get a cool toolbox.

    As for healing, best heals in the game hands down.

    It is confirmed, but no ETA when. Supposedly sometime in the vicinity of Q3 (july-september).

    If you made a Redguard templar, might as well try your hand at stamplar dps. Lots of fun!
