Tanking is not my favorite thing to do in a group. I much prefer dps/support. However, when it comes down to me needing to tank, I will do it. However, my tanking is decent at best and I know I'm not using all my potential.
There's at least one thing I know I need to work on.
Feral Charge. I can't seem to get this one right. I've tried using it to charge into a group...but half the time I aggro them before the charge button lights up that I'm close enough. I'm not too low level in comparisson to the mobs, I know that. I think maybe I should practice on some lower level mobs to get a better idea of the right distance to be able to charge.
The other thing about feral charge is using it to protect my healer. I can't seem to be able to get it right and usually just end up running after the mob to regain aggro.
I wonder if part of my problem is the placement of the skills on my action bar. I have growl on number 1, enrage on 2, mangle on 3, maul on 4, swipe on 5, bash on 6, demoralizing roar on 7, feral charge on 8, feral farie fire on 9, frenzied regeneration on 0, challenging roar on -, and ...I don't recall what's on the =. I usually keep my left hand fingers hovered over numbers 3 to 6. Is there a better placement or macros I can use to help with this? I can't use macro's with 'alt' as a modifier as I find it quite awkward trying to use it. My right hand usually stays on the mouse to help move her around.
My rotation of attacks is: I usually start of with a mangle and swipe, demoralizing roar, and then alternating between mangle and swiping while changing targets as I can. I'll throw in a bash if I can while fighting casters.

It seems to not be updated at the moment. I'm level 56 now.
Thanks for your time.
