Now you may be wondering why I'm asking here and not on some other forums. I'm not 100% sure myself but I'm not about to go tackle Coil neither since I hear that's where the best of the best are and they expect you to be the best of the best too. I'll just be the WoD runner that I am yeah...

Maybe cuz the time I first tasted endgame content left a bad taste in my mouth when everyone was il100something while I was a i48ish pleb tanking and losing aggro on fucking WP and don't wanna taste that again.

Nah, I just want ask a few questions and run a diagnostic on my thought pattern whenever I'm tanking stuff on Kurt. I mean I got him to i105 and I feel great now that I don't get yelled 99% of the time(for losing aggro you nub) especially since they put back ilevel caps. 

Suppose I'm not the MT for any given run and delegated to OT. Wooh!

-Should I have Defiance on or off? Thing is even if I'm not the MT in a run I still have Defiance on for the crit boost as well maintaining an orange aggro level just in case the MT dies so I know the Aggro can easily shift to me with just an overpower or so. Well you get the question, Defiance on or off? Crit boost or flat DPS? Also Unchained. 

-Let's say the MT is a PLD, am I doing it right by simply going Storm's Eye essentially 90% of the time and just keep refreshing Storm's Path(because I think the PLD needs more mitigation) and Fracture or should I just go Storm's Eye 100% of the time because the other two might just waste my TP anyway. 

-Should I be asking for goad or just auto-attack until my TP regenerates?

-Berserk should be popped when exactly? I mean I pop it when I'm like stupidly low on TP but should I be popping it earlier?

Suppose I am the MT because some genius thought it would be smart to put a i105 nub as MT. 

-Overpower>Flash>Overpower>Flash>Overpower>Flash>Overpower after I do a Tomahawk to grab the mob that is and sometimes the mob after it. Thoughts? This is under the condition that Infuriate is on CD and I just used a Steel Cyclone prior to the encounter. Question is, am I overpowering too much or am I overpowering too little?

-Popping CDs when I'm at like 50% HP or grabbing more than 1 mob group at a time? Or do I just hit those CDs every time they go off CD?

-Provoke, do I lob a hawk at the enemy if he's distant or Holmgang his ass to me? On the one hand lobbing birds at it is practical, on the other being scorpion is Kool too. 

-Is it practical to slot in a Fracture in between my BB/SP combos just to boost DPS or should I keep my eyes on the prize and keep smacking the thing to keep aggro? 

-On the cross class front, Convalescence..do I even need it with all my lifesteal? Not that I have any other cross class to take.

-Thrill of Battle, when's a good time to pop it? I usually do mine when I hit like 30%ish HP. 

-Berserk should be popped when exactly? I mean I pop it when I'm like stupidly low on TP but should I be popping it earlier?
