At the beginning, sure, they'll wait because it's the beginning, they know to wait. But in the middle of a fight, chances are, they aren't going to be thinking about waiting for the tank to land aggro. If they're anything like me, they're wanting to kill kill kill!!! :)<BR/><BR/>Yeah, with a druid tank unless I do something to IT, it shouldn't take more than an auto-shot. :PKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12708082019182660608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-873243172583418828.post-17908927809921598112008-02-26T09:20:00.000-06:002008-02-26T09:20:00.000-06:00Usually BEFORE the first mob is dead, I turn, find...<I>Usually BEFORE the first mob is dead, I turn, find the next mob I'm killing, and feral charge it. Chances are, unless the first mob is a healer, it will be dead shortly. (I do this when the first mob is about 5% alive). If it's a healer, I stay on it to make sure.</I><BR/><BR/>This is huge. It took me a while to figure this out on Owaru. If I'm multitanking in a heroic, I'll pull the Skull and X back, Hammer of Justice( 6 sec stun, tons of hate ) the X and go to town on the Skull and maybe use a consecrate. By the time the skull is at 5% I'm switching targets to my threat up on the X. <BR/><BR/>I need to change neshura's pull macro. I think she has it set on "Oh my god it's a paladin tank trapping is going to suck" mode and uses a full rank distracting shot. With a druid tank it should only take Arcane Shot Rank 1.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12443265182043871213noreply@blogger.com
