NomineImperator Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Has anyone else encountered this? I think 'issues' may be a bit of a strong word for it, as it did not impede our instancing much, but today was the first day some friends and I ran a couple hardmode instances, and I found that as a Vanguard DPS (With a Vanguard tank) I was constantly pulling threat by accident. This would not have been too much of an issue but I quickly realized that as a Vanguard I have zero threat drops. Anyone else run into problems DPSing as a vanguard with this? For the record the tank and I were about on par with gear, so it was not that the tank was doing poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mminas Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 It's true we do have threat issues. We have absolutely no threat reduction whatsoever and competitive damage. Especially in HM where boss fights tend to be shorter you will be aggroing a lot. There have been cases where I overaggroed even with guard on. This won't be a problem in 4man content since getting a guard on you removes the problem and it's not that big a thing to ask but on ops spending guard on heavy armor melee is a liability. We really do need some active and/or passive threat reduction. ... and a threat meter. ... and throw a combat log and parser while your at it kkthxbb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeve Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Or Bioware could fix aggro. I'ts way too jumpy tanks need some real aggro ramping abilities especially with no current threat meter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajind Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) I had problems with this in heroics, but i have not had it in raids. Edit: but still a threat meeter is nice. Edited February 2, 2012 by kajind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
