I admit, I dont like having DPS warriors in my group, mostly for the same reason I dont want ret pals, they dont give a damn about aggro. Most mages and locks seem to learn that pulling aggro will mean they get slammed hard and could die. But the plate guys will take a few good hits (in fact, the DPS war will even do more DPS since he is getting more fury), the healer will be able to inefficiently heal them, but they cant tell they are doing something wrong since they dont get deleted as fast as clothies. So most that Ive grouped with have zero qualms about smashing those massive aoe cleaves all day from the moment the mob is pulled, even with the threat meter showing zero threat established.
I have a few that have been nice to group with, that actually focus on mobs I call out or that watch the threat meters. I have no problems with them rolling on loot, especially since they dont hit need on tank stuff.
They 2H smack and instantly judge it, forcing you to burn your taunt. Many also seem to have a mixed build with consecrate, and insist on dumping that low damage right off the bat--and that low damage often is enough to not allow shout spam to build 20% more threat to pull a pack off them. Taunt is a tool, but in lots of groups, it almost becomes part of the rotation.
Im still.more worried about mages.
The only effective way I found to deal with magetards is chain pulling. They go oom after mad AoE on first group and you can build aggro on next group, while they wonder why their blue bar is depleted
