To be clear, you swing at a mob 50 times and miss all 50, doing zero damage. You generate the same threat as hitting the mob all 50 times and doing 5,000 damage.

Would like neckbeard confirmation of the above.
questionably well informed (and good looking) casual checking in here to mostly confirm you post. it actually work liek this:

threat = 2xweapon_dmg+dmg_bonus

there you have it. now we can stop with all the aggro mechanic nonsense and get back on topic with the warrior epic discussion. personally, i liek it a lot, but that just me.
