Well, dmg is a part of the aggro equation. It's unusual for a skilled tank, especially when it comes to single targets, to lose aggro but it does happen sometimes due to sheer dmg output combined with strings of crits. Even with staggering mock and deva, if the mobs don't die fast enough (like in TR lmfao), there's a possibility that aggro can slip to DDs or a cleric.

But for most situations, aggro can be well-kept when a tank knows his limits and is skillful in his tanking. And finding a good tank is hard, especially post-60... so go for it, skilled tankers are <3.
