Hey people, just looking for a little help. I played a Wood Elf Warrior back in 99-01. I decided to do the same class/race combo again for nostalgia of course! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
My problem comes down to aggro or Mob hate to be more specific. I'm currently level 15 using a Screaming Mace, and Unicorn Shield. All skills are maxed, or close to being maxed (got 15 not long ago.) My stats are 78 strength, agility is 100, and dexterity is 84. I have all skills available up to lvl 15 (Dual Wield, Double Attack Etc.) I cant remember if I had problems holding aggro on a mob back then or not with a Warrior. Ive also forgotten, what exactly increases aggro or hate on a mob.
Ive been grouping with shadow knights, and their spells pretty much end up being instant taunts. Where as, I'm lucky if my taunt does anything at all. Even though, I have better equipment/weapons I cant hold the same type of aggro as them. Could someone please explain to me the intricacies of classic hate/aggro on mobs? I just feel like I'm doing a terrible job, when in reality; I'm doing all I can to get them to just even glance my way at times. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Thanks in advance [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Ps. Is it just me, or do mobs hit like a freakin MAC truck? I dont recall them ever being so brutal sometimes, but then again I dont remember simple stuff. Just curious. |
On a side note there is a bunch of info that can be found on taunt here:
http://www.thesteelwarrior.org/forum...x.php/f-2.html
Just do a ctrl+F and search for "taunt"
Some of the info mentions AA's so ignore those parts since we will never have AA's on this server.
Long story short, you can't always blame taunt or the warrior. This game was made to be challenging and other people in the group are supposed to know how to manage their own aggro. That's why certain classes specifically get aggro reduction spells and abilities.
On live I only ever had agro problems in pick up groups but when I was in a guild group everything always went smoothly so don't necessarily beat yourself up over this. Hit 20, max taunt and see if things improve (test on blue cons to start).
