As a low lvl tank, marking is working out for me.

Ironically what isn't, is melee assisting me. They continue to assist me as I switch through mobs to keep hate up, which ultimately defeats the purpose of marking.

I'll still mark though, it's almost 90pct for the bard/blm though. Those are the only 2 I really give a rip about knowing what they are attacking. Once a mob leaves the pile, it makes things more difficult for me.

Fortunately, I've had pretty good success with people following the marks.

I understand the low lvl perspective isn't valued, but all the same, I see value in marking, and will continue to do it as long as I have room for the buttons to do so.
