Best Role for the Warden Class

Hey folks –

I have been debating on creating a Warden for my next character, but before I did that, I wanted to pose the question: What role do you believe best fits the Warden class?

In example, what I see as the general consensus as “best role fit” for other classes is that Sorcerers and Nightblades lend themselves to being DPS based, Dragonknight skills lead them to being tanks and Templar’s greatest class strength is in their healing. Now those are obviously broad generalizations that I am sure folks can debate, but when trying to answer this same question for the Warden class – my senses are leading me all over the place. Are the Warden’s greatest strength to queue up as tanks? Healers? Stam DPS? Mage DPS? Hybird? Please weigh in with some thoughts.

The purpose of me asking this is that I usually try to do some planning for what I want my character to end up as before I move forward with creation. If anyone wanted to share any guides/templates/builds they’re using, I would gladly look into it.

Thank you in advance for the help 

    For me the warden is a Jack of all trades - master of none. So its great at all but other classes will be better in that specific role. But i think wardens healing/ tanking are really good.

    I have heard a lot of good things about the Warden Tank.

    Warden Healer is also quite good but a definite second to Templar.

    Hybird - Tank/Healer
    - hybrid for premades (dungeons and PvP);
    - tank or healer for PUGs;
    - tank for trials;

    upd: i actually enjoy stamina warden DD (heavy crit kitten) while questing. Sub Assault as combat opener, then Shrouded Daggers or Acid Spray (depending on mood, lol) and BAM - insta death from 35k+ DPS )

    ive always heard that they are great tanks with off heals.

    For pvp they are really powerful.

    They belong in pvp, pve may shun wardens but we will give them a place of honor.

    Perhaps I should have added PVP as an option.

    I appreciate all of the responses so far. Would love to get some more votes before I make my ultimate decision.
