I'm a White Lion too. It's pretty awesome that a melee DPS class gets a pet, and for that reason they seem to be very a versatile class.

Keep in mind, MBok, that it is a PvP-oriented game. The PvE doesn't get much more developed than it is at low levels (i.e. no raids, and the instances are fairly simple, straight-forward affairs with tank and spank bosses.)
