arent you a warmo shouldnt you have a uber tank build? with healing hands, healing breeze, mending, vigorious spirit. live vicariously. u just rush in and start agroing everything and keep spaming the healing spells and you sould do fine.

BTW: I am being Sarcastic.

=)

also, you'll need to learn how to control aggro now that you don't have your precious gear/keg.

Its not just him, the rest of the team need to learn how to let the warrior KEEP the agro too.

well, a warrior can keep his aggro by making sure casters and others stay out or on the edge of his aggro right?

the gearbox trick in SF no longer concentrates all the aggro on the one whos holding it. So yea, the warrior now needs to be more skilled in handling all the aggro =p

The ironic thing about this is Just 1 day before the keg nerf I just started to get into groups for the oro farming. Not to say that I can't still do it, but it I think its a little funny that it has been around for so long and now when I decide to go do it, it gets nerfed. Maybe I jinxed it for everyone.

It is likely the above poster, Njudson, is now dead, as a result of 1143 angry whammos and a single albino dwarf asulting him with sticks of various sizes, ranging form tooth pick to "the whole damn tree."

Everyone Bashing on the warriors about how we used the Gear Aggro.. Seems I remember lots non warrior characters going out with warriors and collecting green drops while the warrior was doing stance aggro. And now they are smack talking warriors again for the new aggro warriors. OK lets have a non warrior go do the aggro.... Show us how it is done.... come on lets see it....its all part of the game and there are no experts in Guild Wars....well maybe just you...

Isnt that concept pretty much non-existent in guildwars? In other games I have played games (NCSoft's City of Heroes or World of Warcraft) where there were specific powers to help warriors hold aggro. In guild wars we have the one and only aggro circle.

So apart from the squishies staying far behind so mobs dont get into their aggro circle what is this magical way for a warrior to "hold aggro"?

That's pretty much it.

And killing things before they kill you.

Warriors are still pretty good at holding onto aggro bait taken the bait doesnt move the issue is mainly casters and rangers as long as the warrior pulls so that all of the casters are on the far side of him the group should be ok. Then your damage dealer should be able to work his way close enough to take out casters. Biggest thing is for the group not to panic if they do pull aggro onto them.
