Question - What are sensible aggro values in the aggro section ?

The aggro meter stuff in eq is new to me. So I wonder what are good aggro percentages to act on ?

From my SK and Wiz

[Aggro]
AggroOn=1
AggroSize=4
Aggro1=Terror of Jelvalak|90|<
Aggro2=Ageless Enmity|90|<
Aggro3=Charge for Power|90|<
Aggro4=Encroaching Darkness|90|<

[Aggro]
AggroOn=1
AggroSize=3
Aggro1=Arcane Whisper|60|>
Aggro2=Concussive Flash|60|>
Aggro3=Concussive Burst|60|>

Are 90 and 60 ok ?
 
I don't know much about the aggro line, but I assumed that you would need to have aggro for these to work. I see where it is used in bard and monk ini. Aggro1=Fading Memories|90 or Aggro1=Feign Death|20 . Looking at your sk ini I would say Charge for Power should be in the DPS section DPS1=Charge for Power|100.. I could be wrong but this is how I have been doing it. I would like to hear from others as well.
 
as a tank, you should allways have the aggro, so if it drops below 100, you arent top aggro no more, so <100 should be it.

on my mage i generally been aiming for not going over aboit 80 aggro as his next nuke would either give him full aggro or veeeeery close like 99..
 
The aggro routine it kind of a hail marry, to give you an opportunity during the fight, to try and grab MORE agro, or try and get rid of it. If setup properly on all characters in the group. This routine can help your Tank save on Endurance.

If you don't have an issue with endurance/mana and you want all the agro you can get, then you can do as cannonballdex suggested and move all your agro entries to your DPS section. Either way will work, but the agrro routine gives you just a little finer control of when to start using your agro entries.

Yes I have it in the dps section as well like this

DPS1=Terror of Jelvalak|100|once
DPS2=Encroaching Darkness|100|debuffall|snare|Weave
DPS3=Charge for Power|100|once
