My monk, using T-Staff, can tank pretty much anything that's slowable. Hell, i've also tanked Prot/TolA in seb without slow landing. I also usually don't have problems with agro unless Proc isn't going off, or the rogues are doing insane damage and not evading. I'm also assuming I would have ZERO problems with agro if I used a Bio Orb.

I also usually end up with agro in PUGs if there is a traditional tank in group. Last raid, i think i finished.. 7th? 6th? on the dps chart using fist + SoS. And i'm by no means BiS. I have ONE piece of ToV gear.

So, yeah. If you're looking to say, have a min/max group for farming in sebilis, you want a monk to tank. If you're level 30 in a GY group in MM, it's probably better to have a Knight for snap agro.
