This is something that should be looked at if SE is serious about inviting more people to try the tanking role.
    Not months. Lodestone Hanoka Song on Coeurl, I made that character after returning from a month long break. She is a Warrior now, and I leveled from fresh lvl 1 status to 50 War as well as lvl 24 GLD at this point. This was all recently, within the last 3-4 weeks. I had none of the problems you are talking about leveling either tanking class. I have run my low level roulette consistantly as well.

    Here is the issue, and you said it yourself. "Inexperienced tanks". Yes, the first 4 dungeons you will be inexperienced. Yes, there will be limited tools at low levels, because they are, well, low levels. You cannot/will not have 20 skills to mitagate damage and manage emnity at lvl 15 when you head in Satasha. I just seriously don't see what the massive issue with utilizing flash/overpower and maintaining aggro is, because even as a brand new player I didn't have these problems in these dungeons. Yes, it can be overwhelming, but the whole "It's impossible to hold aggro hermergerd the game is broken for tanks at low levels" is not helping your cause. You are pushing people away from tanking by saying these things, which are simply not true. If what you were saying was a universally true problem, then I and others who have commented in this thread would be having them too. We are not.

    I'm not trying to be rude or imply that you are a bad tank and I am a good tank, just telling you the honest truth.
