ok the thing is no matter what i do (half tank gear half kitty gear with full kitty spec) i get about 2.3K dps in 10 mans(no raid gear yet)
thing that troubles me is that most tanks cant keep aggro anymore over me when i dps.
warrior in full T7.5 had troubles keep aggro on me only tank that could was a T7 pally
so what do i do in those situations just stop skill use and gimp my dps ? or cower which does basically nothing :s
does anyone have these problems now aswell?
(also is 2.3K dps bad for first starting out at raids with half of my gear gemmed and chanted for tanking)

Please be patient while we take out the banhammar and remove his posts. Until then, be careful not to quote or inherently spam the threads yourselves. Thanks everyone!

I agree with Parrazell - it seems like the tanks aren't putting out enough threat...
However, if you aren't using it already,
Cower
might be useful. Yeah it's expensive and yeah it's reducing your dps, but if you're threat capped it may help your dps in the long run.
Just a thought...
thing is cower doesnt cut it and the biggest prob i see is the rip critting etc and tank not knowing about it or not caring about it

Are these trash encounters or just for boss encounters?
If they're trash, tell your tanks to use kill orders. Other than that I have no idea what else might be the issue.

Don't waste energy on cower.
Simple solution; get better tanks because they blow.

I tank as well as dps and u should not have issues with threat at all, within the first 2secs i usually have about 12k threat, and druids are supposed to be one of the slowest threat gainers due to having to wait on rage. So yes get new tanks
LOL!
druids are the BEST threat generaters, i play a bear druid and i always switch to bear form right before a pull so i have the 10 rage from furor and the little extra threat from faerie fire or charge depending on the pullso i dont know what you mean by waiting on rage.
and on every fight i can out aggro EVERY tank in my guild even though they consider me the least geared. they have to fight to hold aggro off of me.
my duel spec is kitty dps so whenever i feel like it on 10man naxx ill stick on my dps gear and outthreat everybody without even trying its hilarious how easy it is to tank as a druid.

changed my play style quite a bit now
my main spec is tank btw but been dps last 3-4 VoA's/OS due to lack of dps in the guild
instead of waiting 5 sec for tank to get some aggro i wait 10 seconds
and the second problem that causes the overaggro is "unlucky" crit series
thrash is usually AOE fest for us and yes cat swipe can be pretty nasty aswell
