Players should limit their use of powers and utilize them for Aura purposes. Examples include, but are not limited to Fire Shield, Rock Armor, Personal Force Field, and Invincibility.
• Be very careful in your power choices and avoid overusing multiple powers. Powers should not hide your costume.

• Power customization and showmanship will be factored in as well.

You for got to mention Zwillinger kept announcing in his dev voice ( IE the red one) that this is a tanker event in KR 1.

I agree with this tactic, I have a WP/SS tank and it can hold aggro really well with my attack chain. In my RTTC I do have 1 lvl 50 taunt IO and I get lot of aggro just from that.
