    flesh ream sucks in aps squad
    if flesh ream could hold aggro there would be no need for aps barbs

    If flesh ream could hold aggro it would still be useless. Why tank and do no damage when you can tank and do a ton of damage?

    In all honesty I'd love to tell you barb...
    but really there is no way of avoiding it, DPS, or APS, or whatever you prefer to call it, tanks best

    So maybe it's better to choose other class, not a barb? Which one would tank better later?
