A character that can take a lot of damage but can't deal damage or heal/dispel/buff is useless, the enemy will just ignore them. In PvP warriors are damage dealers only, we don't have any additional utility like buffs, dispelling, heals, stealth, or serious crowd control.

Stealth is worthless endgame PvE, and the ease in which it's broken/prevented is a big reason I support Camoflage over Master of Deception for PvP (though my build has both maxed). Find a Rogue out of stealth, you just greatly increased your chances of survival.
As for warriors not tanking in PvP, I've seen quite a few rush in to break up the lines, do tons of damage, get healed by teammates, and stay standing much longer than anyone else could. Damage Mitigation + Damage Dealing + a fear spell. Great way to start a charge.
Of course, I worry about PvE more than PvP. And right now the difference between Warrior and Rogue damage can be small enough that the extra backup/dog/whatever tanking ability makes it more than worth it.
Trade yourself in for the perfect one. No one needs to know that you feel you've been ruined!
