    Hello. I was wondering if I could get some advice on where to go with AAs. I am mainly concerned with keeping argo and survivability. Thank you for your time.

    Keeping agro and surviving are your only concerns as a warrior but they are completely differant paths when it comes to AA.

    Agro - I'll start with any hastened aa that reduces refresh on your innate taunt (Max out your hastened taunt starting at lvl 85. Once maxed your innate taunt refreshes every 3 seconds), scowl and roar lines. Infused by rage begining at lvl 73. Begining at lvl 96 phalanx of one begins procing hate. Blast of anger begining at lvl 76 is a great agro getter and helps maintain but refreshes every 3 minutes. At lvl 85 projection of fury but refreshes every 10 minutes. Warlord's fury at lvl 85 gives an added 25% hate for 2 minutes but refresh is 10 minutes. Ageless enmity at lvl 85 with a refresh of 6 minutes. Don't forget with every swing of your weapon you generate hate as well. So Duel wielding, as long as you can take the punishment, is the best way to keep agro. Not to mention all the offensive aa that increase your strikes on a mob (ie ambidexterity). Until you can mantain agro with relative ease use a weapon agro aug.

    Surviving- I think all tanks start with combat stability (lvl55) and combat agility (lvl55). from there I would suggest planar power type aa that increase your max stats (this includes the same type of individual aa starting with underfoot expansion. Physical enhancment at lvl 59. Shield block at lvl 67. Combantant's pact at lvl 95. Brace for impact lvl 95 15 minute refresh. Blade guardian at lvl 95 10 minute refresh.Gut punch at lvl 76. Knee strike at lvl 55. Hold the line at lvl 71. Resplendent glory at lvl 81. There are many more aa that will add to your survivability but I would start with these.

    Shield specialist and improved shield specialist are a must once you master agro and are ready to stop duel wielding. These two aa will give you your max potential for dps, agro and survivability.
