Any tips on how to play an Ogre tank without going mad?

Wait til you are asked to pull for CE group in Mistmoore... oh boy...

A friend of mine who has been a career ogre tank more often than not refuses to pull due to fatness lol. Even with a de mask or some illusion; my recommendation would be to make good friensd with monks and minimize your own movement.

Sure, refusing to pull might lose some groups or frustrate some members within them, but there are plenty of people willing to play a free moving melee dps and bottom line being an ogre can often equate to an easier job for your healer as opposed to backing a smaller race that is not as innately beefy.

This is super sad, since shadowknights are one of the best and most underrated pullers in the game. It's amazing how reliably you can get a single pull with snare + fd.

Shrink potions! Adventure anywhere in Norrath! They aren't even that expensive.
