Hmm, might be it.As somebody who has a mid-level Druid, I think I'll play devil's advocate for just a moment. The Druid is an awesome class for soloing (though I only use cat when fighting mobs lower than my level) with many options. However, everybody's talking about how Priests can always find a group. There's a good reason for this: there is a sickening shortage of healers! Chances are that 90% of the groups you join you'll be called upon to take up the task of making sure nobody dies. I've performed a tanking role three times out of my numerous groupings: Gathering Miner's Packs in Loch Modan, doing Thistlenettle's quests in the non-instanced portion of the Deadmines, and in Blackfathom Deeps (where we had three priests). As far as I can tell, you get relegated to support duties if your character has any abilities to heal others.

If you're a warrior fan I would encourage you to play one. Warriors have their problems but I still stand by my earlier comments: do what you enjoy. Find out what you have to then make your own best choice.
Dezz, I don't think Thalanaar counts as a town. I don't have any flight paths that connect to it. And technically, the area is flagged as "Feralas." But I *kind of* get what you're saying.
