Druid threat issues
Just need to fix Druid agro so our ability’s cause more aggro and swipe damage needs a buff. But yeah not worth the headache tanking dungeons may aswell go resto.

I’ve seen some pretty good druid tanks. I remember good tanks being like gold back in the day. That seems to be becoming the case again.

everyone is having problems with aoe threat besides pallies. Things will even out with more gear.

Druid threat is fine, your gear/talents probably are not. Also if your DPS are going AoE mode right off the bat, they’ll pull off any Tank, not just Druids, so don’t take it personally if some Seed spamming Warlock gets themselves killed.

This is the correct answer. You can keep aggro, just mark a target with skull at the beginning of the pull and try to keep everything but that one target on you. if your DPS is smart they’ll burn down that target before anything else, and by that time you’ll have plenty of aggro on the other 2-4 targets in the pack.
Yes tank agro is fine if DPS counts to 4-5 before doing their thing or uses a threat meter. No one cares about your parse but you.a

No one gets mad at you, they either make fun of you or take pity on a troll.
Druids always being sassy, y’all need a scratch pad!

When you get +hit and +expertise (so you are not missing so much you will hold threat better. Hang in there.
The bears I have healed seem to be good tanks but its the DPS that pull agro on something the tank is not focusing on.

Proper marking, DPS having threat meters, DPS allowing tank to build sufficient aggro, Heals using aggro wipe abilities / having a priest, full clefthoof set / cenarion hammer and full agility gems.
On pull max rank regrowth / rejuv and then starfire the target, shift to bear and enrage.
Boom you have a stupid amount of threat.
Playing a bear tank is NOT like playing any other tank.
Are you using threat plates?

Also lacerate/mangle tabing is super important in large group pulls for sustained aggro

This total nonsense. Unless your group always takes more then 1 min to clear a pack. Popping out of bear and losing nearly all my rage? no ty. Sure if healer is drinking and you lost it anyway you can do this, else keeping rage and chain pulling is way better.

I said on pull, this is advice for tanking raid bosses…
Granted the OP was talking about Dungeons so im just in left field here.
