I'd like to ask you what you want to do with them though, what are your plans for these two bad boys? :P

Slayer is an all around great class.
Great damage dealer (nice burst), lots of knockdowns + some stuns, decent mobility, and a prefect class for soloing.
Not much else to say.

Warrior is decent, but certain things are expected to be exceptional.
Does decent damage, but lacks in a lot of burst.
High mobility is one of this classes main features. While you may lack in burst, stuns + being quick help make up for it.
May have some issues in some cases when it comes to soloing, but its do able.
The big thing about warriors is they are able to tank. Tanking for them is all about not being hit. Plenty of skills to help with this, but a good tanking warrior isn't easy to come by.
The point is, warriors can tank and deal damage, but are not the best at either.

until warrior can (legally) tank (better than lancers if you arent a fucking idiot imo) both are pretty much useless.
Good, but useless.
3 hour ques for dungeons.
Over abundance of both.
etc.

I've played both a warrior and a slayer to 60 and they are quite different..

Slayer is a good PVE/PVP class. Pve has great potential for high crits and good burst damage. Also the ability to solo things is really great. It's a damage dealer class, and it does not really deviate much from what a DD is known for.

A Warrior is .. not as much damage but has his endurance debuff which lets him catch up to slayer a bit. The class is much different, though, being highly mobile with quite a few dodges that grant invincibility frames.
The only thing about a warrior though is that to be a GOOD warrior, you need to be somewhat.. really dedicated to it. To learn good rotations and for tanking, you'll probably be pissing off a lot of people. (Turning the boss, getting hit = 40+% of health being leather wearer).
But it's a class that can keep you busy because it can be challenging to get down right. (some get close, but I have yet to see a great warrior.)
