Thanks for all the replies everyone. We did Broog with a pickup group(bad idea maybe, but hey its only x2), and mag was just a group of 4. I dont raid much and if/when I do I certainly wont know how good the tank (barring a few friends). I would much rather do moderate DPS and live then draw agro(its embarassing). Nice to hear that in the right setup you can really wind up your spells.

Thanks Again,

like the others have stressed raid set up is key.

you need a de-hate, either ghetto version with amends(will usually get pally killed), or get a troub and stick him with all the casters.

I've been on a raid with 0 de-hate and a not so good mt. I pulled agro at 400 dps using only DOTS!

The other things you can do is make sure the MT group has proper hate gain like the others suggested, assasin or a good swash for hate transfer(if you dont have an assasin) or Coercer for hate + dps increases + regen, or a dirge for simmilar buffs.

usually dirge or coercer are best, but assasin or swash are better than nothing.
