So was I and yes we were. More like you cant argue against it.
Bear generated rage attacking and getting hit and spent rage on attacks (even having the same heroic strike mechanic). Not nearly as capable at tanking raid bosses as warriors. Had plate level armor in bear
Cat generated energy and built up combo points and spent them on finisher moves. Even lost them if attacking a different target like rogues did.
And balance was a crap mage too. All subpar to the “dedicated class” whose form they emulated as a cost to having said access
