By this I mean being a pure meat shield while my team burns the other team down, through means of creating a defensive barrier between their DPS and mine. With that being said, I tend to stick with my team. Many will complain endlessly calling this "ganging". This is the first PvP game where I've seen people complain about teamwork in CTF (a team-concept game). Anyway, I simply cannot do the damage necessary to kill others in PvP, while maintaining a pure-tank spec for the PvE element of the game.
However, with the right gear and spec, you can absolutely be what we call a "glass cannon". There are many good warriors out there that can kill as necessary. Hopefully they chime in on this conversation. However, I don't think the Pavise is their weapon of choice. I would say L30 Pit Sword, Abyssal Flamberge, or Entombed Hammer would be your best damage weapons.
Hope this helps a little. I dislike PvP on my warrior in this game - a topic which merits its own thread.
