Warrior melee aggro is just horrible. In fact with current proc rates I would almost go so far as to say that for XP groups warriors are a broken class without serious dex gear. I did 5str/20sta for my warrior, if I had to do it over again i'd do 10sta/15 dex. Get dex buffs from a shaman whenever possible. At 50, the average fight with a group will last about 1 minute. With 125 dex and 2 proccing weapons, I get a proc which will usually hold aggro about every 40 seconds. So that means I'm tanking 2/3 of the time.
From 1-40, just use a Staff of Battle since 1H dps is crap and all the proccing weapons with good ratios won't proc.
From 40-50 you will begin to suck as a warrior due to no skill increases. For max aggro go double yak club.
From 50-60 the standard combination is Sarnak Warhammer/Silken Whip of Ensnaring. It's reasonable aggro/dps but -5AC is kind of annoying.
If you are super rich go RMoY/BotBDE (expect to shell out 300k).
Warrior weapon selection blows compared to monks who can get a tstaff for 50k.
