For the record? Everyone go ahead and laugh at Alava.

We were doing the Tiger boss in ZG and instead of having a rogue play 'catch me if you can' with the rogue mob we had Frostshock offtank for when Revenged (Alava) got gouged. It worked beautifully. I gave Alava 3 sunders before I turned on autocast growl on the 4th sunder and just let Frosty go to work and the rogue never moved a step.

Of course there were some complications. After a little while Frostshock generated more aggro then Alava and stole the rogue from him. Then, with only pistos and me healing, Frosty went down stabed full of holes. I rezed him and slapped a bandage on my pet wolf before sending him back in to off tank. Frostshock stole aggro again and I had to pull out and bandage my poor pet again. Back into the fray once more (letting Alava get a nice gap of pure tankage in) and in goes Frostshock...to steal aggro AGAIN and get stabbed to death again.

Tank loses aggro to pet three times. Twice after aggro wipe from death.

That's why mages shouldn't tank! (yes I know he has a warrior, its a joke!)

Man! You guys are HARSH!!

I'm all for ppl learning what's what with other classes. It makes them more sympathetic/understanding of differing roles/classes. What you also see is a big difference between an experienced main character with appropriate gear vs. a new(er) level 60 who working to gain gear/end-game experience.

**Sajier** · 12-20-2006, 01:56 PM

Bah, Alava just knows that I hate mages because of getting 1 shotted in battlegrounds

Actually, what was seen is the hunter pets currently gaining 2-3 times the aggro they should with growl, its been reported on the TBC beta servers, and is now back to its intended level. Don't be too hard on anyone, its just Blizzard's typical way of changing how things work for no reason.

Even without Growl, pets were pulling obscene aggro.
