Tanks and Tankery

As a tank your first focus is to keep your healer safe. The other squishy cloth guys should be running TO you if they get a mob. Yes towards you. Not away. TOWARDS. If you let them know this from the beginning it really helps. Generally you should have no trouble keeping multiple mobs on you if your DPS class keep their pace steady. For me I would be in defensive stance for a multi-mob pull simply because your best tools for keeping aggro, (sunder armor, demoralizing shout, and taunt) are in that stance. There is nothing wrong with staying in battle stance as Artega has said, just so long as you realize you might struggle a little bit to pull a mob off if Mocking Blow is recharging. IMHO its worth the talent points to be able to hold onto more rage when shifting stances simply because a well played warrior will shift stances often depending on the situation.

And you will run around like a chicken with it's head chopped off to soak up adds. But you should be fine so long as you train people at the beginning of the fight to use the assist command: Fkeys (F1, F2, F3, F4, F5) and then the f key they can see what you are targetting and stay on that mob until it dies. They should repeat the assist process until the fight is over.
