So Two of my friends joined up to this game, both playing DPS. I already had a 50 (healer) on my old server but decided I would make a new character on their server, which had a lot more players on it anyway.
As I already leveled a Op healer to 50, I was not keen on the idea of rolling another healer and as my friends already chose DPS roles I said I would tank, I have never tanked in any MMO before so this was all quite new to me, but I levelled and did all the flashpoints I could do, no wipes as of yet in any flashpoint (yey).
So i am down with the basics (I'm level 27 atm) and I was looking for tips and advice for higher levels.
First off this is where I plan to put my skill points at 50:

I know people put a lot more points in Vengance and fewer in immortal but from what I can tell this is less defensive, what are the benefits of going more hybrid? Also how would my skill tree work at level 50?
Secondly, I know the boss fights in flashpoints so I know what is needed of me, my problem is keeping aggro on adds and mobs. I do not have an AoE taunt yet so rely on smash, but there is always one or two adds running for the ranged dps or healer, how can i improve AoE tanking?
Thirdly I would like to know if I have a general roation? At my level i sometimes run out of rage and have to build it up again, will this improve later on?
Fourthly. I would really appreciate any general tips on how to play a Jugg tank at endgame and later on in levels.
Thank you!
