What weapon was he using in relation to you? What level was he in relation to you? What level mobs were you testing on?

Unless there is some sort of bug I do not see an equal level warrior taking aggro off a DK by only using auto-attack.

Also, I am pretty sure the +30% hate applies to our abilities only: Torture, Vex, Malice, Provoke, etc. Abilities like Vex/Malice give more hate than their damage component alone I believe.

Warriors have two functions: do damage and get hate quickly. They do not have the utility that Dreads and Pallies have. We can all tank the same, and we can all get and keep aggro well. We just do it differently.

Everyone seems to think this game is going to be like EQ where you had one MT and a bunch of OTs. That will not be the case. Raid mobs have abilities to wipe a tank entirely from combat for a period of time. Some of the encounters will require multiple tanks.

Some encounters Warriors will tank better, some DKs, some Pallies.. we've gathered that from Sigil in one form or another. In groups it will not make a difference.
