5 Man Caster Comp

[nodoze]

I am level 13.. I stay in def stance and use taunt as soon as they go for one of the alts - I don't have revenge yet and use sunder and heroic strike but rage gain is so slow It's aoe threat that's an issue - some mobs can't be sheeped

I also think the wands are an issue as they have greater wands I crafted, and they pull threat like noones business.

Funny thing is in my Lock team the voidwalkers can hold threat better than my Warrior.. they just couldn't take all the damage without heals.

Maybe I need to go Locks and take the Priest out the trinity to go with them.

Maybe someone else who specializes and/or mains a Warrior can give some guidance (I main a Paladin). In the meantime I will give you what thoughts I have.

If you are doing any AoE damage from your mages I would stop it for now and try to focus fire single target DPS and practice having your Warrior hold aggro. It should get better at level 14 with Revenge and at 16 you get Mocking Blow for important fights.

At your current level a Warrior should be able to keep aggro on at least 1 mob though maybe you just need some more levels. It may not be what others recommend but this is what I am doing on my lead warrior that I want to push Threat on:

With the above build my Heroic Strike is only 12 Rage instead of 15 which lets me do more Threat with less Rage.
Once you hit 14 and get Revenge it should further help with Rage some as it is only 5 Rage (when available);
With Tactical Mastery I can use different stances and abilities and keep up-to 25 Rage when I do that.
With Anger Management my Rage decays slower which is helpful to keep rage up.

When you engage one or more strong Mobs I recommend you try something like the following:

• Warrior start in Battle Stance & Charge for +9 Rage (your ranged group should likely stay back so your Warrior gets body pull aggro on any/all mobs);
• Warrior pop BloodRage (should now be 19+ Rage with 10 more Rage coming over 10 seconds);
• If multiple Mobs Thunder Clap (-20 Rage should take close to 0 Rage) & then Shift to Defensive Stance;
• If single Mob Heroic Strike at least once (-12 Rage each) & then shift to Defensive stance
• Once in Defensive Stance the Warrior does the following on the main target (while you start DPS on the main target from Mages):
  
• Auto-Attack;
  
• Revenge when available;
  
• Taunting if/as needed.
  
• If there are multiple mobs to kill after the current one dies just try to do the above (basically only Revenge and Auto-Attack) to build some rage for the next targets while the Mages DPS the current target. When the current target dies you should be able to Heroic Strike the next target to solidify Aggro and then let the mages start. Once you are down to the last mob then just Heroic Strike when you can (assuming Revenge is not available as you always Revenge instead of Heroic Strike if Revenge is up).
  
• On big fights (like bosses) if you lose aggro and Taunt is down then shift to Battle Stance & give a Mocking Blow to lock down aggro then shift back to Defensive stance. You may need to slow your Mage DPS some if that keeps happening.

Please try the above and let us know if that helps.

If the above works for you, once you feel like you have strong control of Aggro on single Target mobs then, after your Warrior Thunder Claps, try mixing in some Arcane Explosion AoEs from your Mages (only after you have maxed your Arcane Subtlety talents) and see how that goes.
