I want it lowered to 1 minute, or even 30 seconds. Which would make it no more over-powered then hunter's feign death (which is a 100% aggro wipe, with no reagent). I could live with the over-aggro issue because our spells have more threat -- if I have some way of getting rid of that threat more frequently.

Zardie Character Info Zardie 80 Gnome Warlock Anvilmar US PvE Guild: Reverb Talent Spec: 54/0/17	Re: The Warlock Aggro Question i dont think SS is the problem althought i would lke to see its CD reduced to 3 mins. Due to the nature of DoTs its very hard even for destro to stop dps. All other classes can just stop immediatly then pick back up. I think a talent similar to feign death where we could drop aggro for as long as we wanted then it would come back where it left off when we came out of it. There r times when i will aggro the boss or trash and it comes for me and some kind of temperary aggro dump would be nice. Also if your are having alot of threat issues on your guild runs its most prob the tank. Somtimes the tanks we use will switch out and the OT will MT for a night and the night OT is MT its just awful and a real chore trying not to pull aggro on bosses. Where as with our MT i can basically just go all out maybe shatter if we use heroism at the end of the fight

I'll take threat issues gladly if my damage is commiserate with the amount of focus needed, especially compared to other classes, of which none do as much to generate the obscene threat we do.

Holy crap you continue to ask for something that will never happen to an issue that you claim you don't even have. If this will continue just drop out of the conversation having made your point multiple times.

You actually said once:

are you talking about our incredible 10% reduc? That the thread has already talked about?

And have you ever even fought Noth as affliction?

Ablaesa Character Info Ablaesa 80 Human Warlock DarkSpear US PvE PvP Guild: Probably-AFK Profile: Blizzard Armory Talent Spec: 53/1/17	Re: The Warlock Aggro Question I think perhaps there is a common thread of truth running through here. I as well have had threat problems. But I notice I tend to really have them with Dk tanks. I don't recall ever having problems with a druid or pally tank and I haven't used a warrior tank in recent memory but It doesn't seem like I had problems with them...Is it just the DKs? It wouldn't surprise me with all the DK's running around that we're all having problems with the same type of tank and that the problem is DK's threat gen and NOT our morbidly aggressive and lovely natures
