Any sort of stun proc is going to out aggro a dot or simple DD.

Yak proc isn't a simple DD, it also stuns as well - does it not?

It's coveted more so for the stun effect than for the DD. Yes.

So, what would be more ideal - 2 Ringed yaks, or S warhammer+ringed yak?

They have practically the same ratio but since shammer has a lower delay it would make a better main hand weapon. If proc agro is otherwise the same, i'd go with the sham + ringed. Stun has a longer duration then ykesha which would mean fewer hits taken and help your groups overall efficiency out more.

Makes sense - thanks for the info.

Exactly! The more swings, the more aggro. The longer the stun, the less damage tank takes.

It also appears that the hammer procs about twice as much as the Ringed Mace. I may just be one lucky Dwarf but it's certainly a noticeable difference.

Either way, grab some ykesha weapons as they are going to allow you to successfully tank your way towards a Sarnak Warhammer and better warrior loot.

Its sad that warriors have to rely on 1 type of weapon (proc stun/snare) to hold aggro in this game. Now you have every war running around using the same thing.

One of the major flaws of EQ1

Well if aggro was how it truly was they'd all be using Lammys. Pick your poison :).

It will be that way, at some point - in kunark right? I know in Vel, they all use BoC+SoD. Or epic+BoC
