I've leveled up to 20 so far, and holding aggro is a bitch. On light blue, blue and sometimes white cons it's relatively easy to snap aggro. On yellows or reds, it's impossible. Aside from SKs and Paladins, monks and rogues will take aggro too. And the only decent proc weapon you can get that actually procs at a lower level (Obsidian Shards) cost 200-500pp each and as a Warrior you probably won't have much for plat. Otherwise we have to wait until level 25 for the gnoll hide lariats.
Yendor's suggestion to root works well, in fact I've been in groups with him where we used it. By the time root breaks, the mob will most likely be dead anyway. As the warrior all you have to do is stand right up in the mobs face. Easy mode. Not as reliable at higher levels but by that point you should have been able to buy or obtain decent proc weapons and DEX gear. I'm level 20 and I still have ZERO stat gear, sad but true. I can rarely loot because I'm often pulling, and to top that off as a smaller (DE) warrior I don't really have the ability to carry lots of stuff. But my plan was to get as much DEX gear as possible, and being the race that I am my DEX is already pretty decent. But for now I'm just trying to get to 25 for those lariats to work their magic.
