IMO if your group is efficient, aggro isn't even a factor. The mobs drop so fast it doesn't matter. Red or yellow mob? Taunt fails? Root. It's pretty simple. Most of the groups I've been in are excellent at that. Luckily for me everyone on here doesn't have a type A personality with a stick up their ass, so I actually do get invited to groups even if I am not the most efficient or perfect choice.

Wait til Kunark is released, you might be happy some people decided to stick to their warriors.

^ Warriors are superior tanks 60+, even in exp groups they can gain agro extremely fast and are less stress on your healers.

Rolled a warrior as a first toon my bad, but I'm in my 30's now and I won't give it up <as I don't mind a little challenge>. Dual wielding either obsidian shards or lariats <depending on the situation> have a few +dex items and buffs usually. Unless there's root and the group is working as a team it's 50/50 at this point on weather I can keep aggro or not. When Kunark comes the aggro problem will be addressed then. After that I'll remember every screeching little min/maxer bitchbag that gave me shit and whined and pissed and moaned about this subject. Especially when it's midnight in KC and your tank just /q out. I don't beg people for groups. I put up a flag and they know what I am before they invite me. No point in inviting a war to group and then crying about aggro because your wowified hybrids and nukers turn your chosen tank into mediocre dps or you're a ritalin soaked crackbaby that has a fucking brain hemorrhage if the exp slows a bit.

Get a ranger, tell him to not use his mana for anything but root. Even better, get a ranger with dual EBSes. He'll be so happy to have a group, he'll fuckin root adds for you if you don't have a chanter or bard. If the root breaks and the warrior loses aggro, the ranger probably has aggro from DW/DA and chain-rooting, so your casters/healers won't get crunched. Root, root, root. XP groups on easy mode. Total aggro control, plus DPS. Rangers. FUCK YEAH!
