Watch for other shenanigans from your groupmates as well. For example, an Enchanter who spams area effect mesmerize for crowd control will continually memblur your own target--commonly resulting in aggro ping-pong.
"I mean really if the SK gets a disease cloud off on incoming and then loses aggro a few seconds later, someone else in the group dun goofed..."
Not necessarily! Turgur's has always been higher hate than Disease Cloud, and a Shaman who malos or slows on incoming is a good Shaman. The Shadow Knight should immediately cast a second high-aggro spell to ensure the Shaman doesn't get beat up, then follow up with more as needed. If a Wizard tells me in advance he's going to blast away, I'll build extra hate and he can cast as much as he likes and never get aggro. Monks who don't feign and Rogues who don't evade are pretty lazy though.
Shroud of Hate and Shroud of Pain will run you out of mana if you use them as primary hate spells, especially the latter. That applies even if you have clarity. 75 mana is too much for something you intend to spam. I commonly use them as secondary aggro spells though.
