Question On leveling a Maruader

[Canadane]

My suggestion would be to not let a poor previous experience disallow you to continue to try to improve your tanking skills.
While there’s many options available to earn exp and level up, the true feel to any tank class is, well, tanking.

This! Just practice a bit and give it another go. I'm not very familiar with Marauder/Warrior, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but for low level Marauder tanking, you should make sure you always have your Defiance (tank stance) buff up for enmity. When you're approaching a group of enemies, hit one of them with Tomahawk (ranged attack), then as you meet the group spam Overpower (AoE cone attack) to ensure enmity on the whole group. Use Berserk whenever it's up to increase your damage. Always face the enemies away from your party members and try to keep them as close and still and possible (while of course evading enemy moves). Rampart is your only damage mitigation cooldown at low level, so use that whenever it's up and you have multiple enemies to lower the damage you're taking a bit.


Don't stress about it too much. Let your party know that you're completely new to tanking and still learning and they should be very understanding for any mistakes you might make.
