Level 12 Tank Feedback

Positives
I like the abilities, especially the grip in.
With good healing I felt like I could do my job.
Negatives
Losing materials and xp debt on death is too punishing. As a tank you are going to die the most if you are doing your job well. I started an xp farming group with 60 stone, 60 wood for the caravan quest I had farmed while I was looking for a group and when I finally made it to town hours later after XP grinding I had 1 wood and 0 stone. I had spent probably an hour farming those mats, and it was just annoying.
Spamming Q between abilities (or left click) to swing my weapon was not only tedious, but actually strenuous on my hands / wrists / forearms after a couple of hours tanking. Is this really needed, could there not be an auto attack for filler attacks like this?
Having to break up the farming for me to go repair didn't make any sense, so I basically just ended up tanking in broken gear.
