Ohh yeah I can tell ya about! Even when I MISS the initial backstab I get the agro everytime haha...well..there must be a downside to epic on lvl 15 :-)

I use the evade macro, sometimes it works..but after the next autoattack I have the agro back anyway..even with normal hits..not backstabs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Useful information for you here - Potential damage is what gives you the agro, so the mob gains agro as if you landed a max backstab even if you miss! Generally with a Pally/SK tank, I don't assist or hit backstab until they've landed their first agro spell (FoL or disease cloud), then I open up full bore. With warriors, I assist after 4-5 seconds, and try to wait another 4-5 seconds for the first backstab unless my first evade is successful.

At low levels especially (sub 35ish), you'll sometimes tank just as well or better than the tank in your group if they're untwinked. This is a good opportunity to get your defensive skills up as long as you aren't causing the healer to have an aneurism (some will realize you're not less efficient to heal and let it be, some will flip out regardless).
