Those 4 never leave my bars.

I swap between Bloodbath and Skull Sunder depending on what I am doing.

Skull sunder is the highest threat ability I have access to. If I need to tank things I use it (see turn 4, hyrda, garuda).

Why would you need a threat ability? To tank shit when your tank dies? As monk you should be second on the aggro easily without it.
Monks are not off-tanks if we happen to tank something it might work until a certain point but in that case aggro is the least of our worries.

I gave you three examples of when a monk can tank. I cannot help you beyond that if you are unable to think outside the box.

But in those cases - where you're burning down an add that the tanks can't afford to turn to - you should have enmity just from smacking them anyway. 100 Potency is horrible too, may as well just do more damage (and get enmity from that anyway). It really is a waste of a cross class skill.

Good thing monks don't have positional attacks. Also good that when things are chasing ranged around we still do damage just like normal. If you think you can produce more threat with a 130 potency attack then go for it and I will continue being a moron with total control of adds. Not having bloodbath really hurts so there is that as well.

I'd rather leave Skull Sunder inside the box tyvm.
I've done all the things you mentioned without the use of that garbage skill.
Getting aggro is the least of our worries.
