notice that the swede didn't say what race for the ranger.. or that he said use a shield.. i don't understand why a person would only kill fuzzies with a ranger.. granted, cory was probably inflating his stats to make himself look better, but doesn't everyone? (ok, maybe just lunger)

Well Duh!!! Like you kill anything but fuzzies when you're playing Rhynst. Don't try to fool us. We know you get all your exp from pelting!
(I can see it now... next time I log in....
Rhynst points at you.
Wombat boy looks at you.
Rhynst says: Wombat boy, attack!
Wombat boy looks at Rhynst quizzically, and sniffs Calvin's leg.
Rhynst says: I know it's not a fuzzy, but I said ATTACK, darnit! Come on, Sic 'em Wombat boy!!!
You point at Rhynst and snicker.

Rangers _can_ tank but really, they'll never be any better than a tier-2 shifter-like tank

Never thought I'd actually post in here, but hey, I'm bored and feel like wasting some time replying some stale thread.
I find ranger tanking fun.
Something that's quickly becoming my favourite setup is ichor + elvie and one really high damage dealing basher, I call it the offensive strategy. Based on the principle that the more damage you do, the faster you can go, the more corpses you can drain, the less time is wasted on buying heals, more time spent on killing.
Or....
Me with star armour, starblade (3 gems, wimpy helf) and shroud of gustanado, but that requires a minimum of 2 bashers otherwise I don't do enough damage, but is almost equally fun. I call this the defensive strategy. Based on well, a lot of damage being mitigated, it's sort of like a cross between necro and rogue tanking.
Another one that I haven't tried is me with dragon plate, gauntlet of tarran (+40 blocking), a very nice trillian shield of mastery(+32 blocking) and starblade Never tried this so don't know what that's like. I would call that the uber-defensive strategy. This would hypothetically resemble more of a paladin style, without the smites.
Even with mediocre bashers you can do reasonably well:

You can easily double that with Calvin + chain staff *peer*
I mean, Callandor does nice perms, but as a basher he kind of sucks. Rephrase, he just sucks.
Can't say how other classes compare because I don't remember playing them.
Now I'm far from being the greatest tank on AA (I'm not even good at it). But I shall improve, and who knows, might even write a guide to it:P
