So I'm starting to level warrior and was wondering about their position on this server, so I would hope you guys answer couple questions :D

1. Is here too many warriors? (I know warrior is maybe most played class but is there too many)
2. Does warriors find group easy ? (as dps or tank whatever)
3. Are raid and bg groups full of warriors ? (optional but answer if you know the answer)

As you see I'm asking about warriors's rarety and population so if you have anything else to say, just say it :D
Thanks.

1. Yes there are too many warriors as a whole. However, more tanks are always welcome.
2. As tank you will always find group. As DPS you will rarely find groups. Most warrior tanks simply dont want to bring a dps warrior in group for obvious reasons. (Myself included).
3. I cant answer to this one as I dont raid nor do I PvP but I would assume point #1 and #2 above answers this in the same way.

Endgame content requires at least 8 warriors in the raid, and realistically a raiding guild is gonna want 9-10 or even more warriors in their roster. Warrior pop is fine, if anything there are too many hunters

That would depend on:

a) the content.
b) the gear and skill of the fury warriors.
c) fury warriors wanting to OT.

We would normaly bring 2-3 prot tanks for MC/BWL/AQ40 and anything between 1-4 fury warriors. In good gear, a fury warrior can OT any of the above mentioned content just fine. The idea that you "require" 8 warriors is false. 2-3 are required. 5-8 is a good mark.

Yeah you're right of course for current content, and for BWL/AQ you don't need that many tanks. These instances don't require you to think too much about the raid setup. I was referring to naxxramas, and I tend to optimise a alot

Top tier DPS
Best tank
Most devastating in PvP if supported with heals/dispels

Making friends is pretty key, especially if you prefer to DPS... I tank 75% of the dungeons because I know I can get a group together without any problems and it's easily done spec'd as DPS. If I know the healer and am comfortable I can often get away with DPS tanking entire instances.

BIGGEST thing for warriors are his companions so try and make friends ;)

There may be a lot of warriors, but there are never enough tanks.
