Best way to start/hold aggo

Postby JustT » 21 Feb 2010, 22:57

I have been reading and following a post off aoc forums for a while now stating how to holds aggo in raids etc.. just wounder what the other options are for myself to try an use.

*** From Forums***
POP: Volcanic Rage, Juggernaut and Battle Cry (in that order, will DRAMATICALLY increase your DPS for a short period to increase that initial hate)

Hit Charge immediatly

1. Strike and Guard (boosts your defense, so it will take longer for you to need those "Big Heals")
2. Dulling blow IV (puts a bleed on the mob to boost aggro and damage)
3. Overreach IV (call in all DPS)
4. Plexis Strike (increases DPS group's DPS and boosts your stamina)
5. Guard Destroyer III (breaks down the mobs defense)
6. Dulling blow III (adds additional bleed)
7. Overreach III (more damage)

This is what i have been using for a few weeks now, I do have trouble holding aggo which could be down to my gear or maybe this setup?

As long as dps holds back from hitting for a few seconds, you can seal aggro via Irritate & Cry of Havoc (or class equivalent)..but you must be doing the only hits for around 4 secs after.

Not sure about the order you posted as it's Guard specific - Mell or Crushed prob be better answering that :p
