Shadow knight aggro

[Snaggles]

What spell do you pull with? The first one is aggro-locked to like 10 damage (if that). Don't burn a long CD or expensive aggro spell unless it's already aggroed by someone.

If you are asking me, I typically use https://wiki.project1999.com/Blazing...r_of_Fennin_Ro . Long range and not a bad cast time. I'll use Blood Ember Gauntlets instead if I need to split.

Nah, the OP was asking about aggro issues.
I've always used a snare, even clinging, cheap...delays the pull slightly...sets up for an easy cast of a proper dmg spell.

Or a click I guess (or cancel magic).

I haven't had agro issues in camp due to the spell I've pulled with. It doesn't really matter from what I have seen. You just need to dump a bit of agro into the mob once they get into camp and it's fine.

It takes too long to snare the mob first and then pull it into camp since the mob runs slower. I'll only snare if I am splitting specifically.

My point is if someone is having aggro issues, pull with a non-hate spell (siphon strength for example, its fast and cheap), THEN use your aggro spell as the second one.

Or burn a cooldown and 40 mana on a spell that does 1 hate. Whatever floats your boat.

Agreed. Yeah Siphon Strength is a great pulling spell if you don't have a good clickie. Super low mana cost and you can always use a bit more STR.
