You can sneak around SolB and try not to die to pick up a Painbringer too. Procs at level 1. Sure it's an AE proc but CC sucks at low levels anyway, and the AE is a limited area.
Please, please, for the love of all that is good, don't use a Painbringer. Yes, CC sucks at low levels, but the second an enchanter starts mezzing something (or people start root parking, or you're just a bit too close to another non-KOS mob, or a guard, etc etc etc) you are going to regret using this thing. A lot.

Also, there is no way that Obsidian Shards are better aggro than Lariats. Stuns are still the best hate in game at this point. Don't skip them, even if you have a Shard or two -- in fact, I wouldn't even bother, and keep your Lariats until you get SSoYs. Yes, your DPS will suffer, but you will realize at some point that your DPS is largely irrelevant -- your aggro is all that matters when you're tanking.

When you aren't tanking, Axe of the Slayers all the way if you're soloing.
