    Uhm

    Penetrate armour generates some aggro, same with Untamed wrath which are both humanoids

    those are the only two i know of.

    I recomend you dont tank in human though :P

    RIP PWI

    Penetrate armor at high levels can generate pretty good aggro (same as devour), and it can be spammed fast too. Untamed wrath is also good, but doesn't have added aggro from stun if mob/boss resists. The big downside of humanoid aggro skills is that they don't 'force' aggro like flesh ream and roar, so it can be hard to take aggro back if you loose it. You can use the genie skill Alpha Male to help make up for this though.

    Although Penetrate Armor doesn't really force aggro to you, it'll eventually build up a lot of aggro as you use it repeatedly, then it'll be tough to lose it.

    human form arggo is DEFINATELY helpful in arggo skills in AOE... requires lots of MP though. In AOE, I use tiger form and human form. I keep using roar and spark then surf impact then switch and use swell, firestorm and sometimes slam (depending on the situation)

    Yep, Penetrate Armor spam is great for keeping aggro in human. Also, demon sparking > auto atk'ing works well too. b:victory

    Not really sure, but I can steal aggro in humanoid from a lvl77barb spamming flesh ream...and I'm using regular attacks.

    that barb is fail i kept agro at higher 7x from a 9x bm with TT90 axes and he had my buff strenght off the titans buff plus rings and bless box on and he used skills to sure it was a bit tough but with spamming ream i never had problems
    its impossible to always do the right thing we all make mistakes i am not different from that
    just try to be a good person

    I'm not sure why, but I see lower level barbs hold aggro from higher level axe BM's better than higher level barbs. It's like PWI is asking us why is the lower level barb tanking.
    Problems cannot be solved by the same level of thinking that created them.

    honestly i have no problems keeping agro atm they higher barbs with sage/demon skils are just lazy and are far from skill spamming and theres 10 times more fails in each class these days

    Yea, it doesn't happen absolutely all the time - I just see the higher-level-barb-stealing-aggro thing more often than higher level axe BM's.

    Generally I don't have a problem with the lower level barb tanking, but if it's a huge level difference of 10-20 at higher levels, it can be a significant difference as high level barbs can deal some really good damage even with regular attacks, giving the lower level barb a tougher time on holding aggro. But hey, it's always nice to have a challange.

    He might have been fail...Although I can lose aggro while in tiger to my leader Gyonax while he's in humanoid.

    As far as axe BMs, I don't think it's very hard to hold aggro versus them. Demon Fist BMs though or Demon archers/wizzies...that's a different story.
