I'd like to learn how to tank as a druid bear. But not how to tank with a good group, I want to know the tricks to playing well even when you have a cruddy PuG where no one waits for you to actually hit something before attacking (or for you to gain any rage for that matter). They each attack a seperate mob. The rogue uses some sort of AoE attack and then things aggro off him and onto the healer. Someone gets bored and pulls mobs when I'm not looking. And so forth.
I can tank a single target or with a good group just fine (lacerate, mangle, lacerate). But I look really stupid with a bad group when the mobs run all over and finally I'm just like "***** it. I don't care anymore!"
As a tank, I tend to be given party leadership, so I'd like to know how to use it. What raid icons do you use. How do you use them (sap this one, freeze that one, pets off tank the other one, etc)? What instructions do you give the party beforehand? How do you gather up and regain aggro on mobs that are scattered around attacking other players?
