    Been running Twintania for a long time now as the main tank, Both Solo tanking her and using 2 tanks. And in Neither case in any attempts or pulls did Twintania or her Dragon pets Agro anyone other than the initial body puller, But 2 things here worry me ...How do people get to turn 5 lol without knowing how the games agro system works and avoid this issue all together.. NEVER cast anything on a tank as he is pulling nor do you use any buffs or spells until he has them rounded up from the initial pull agro. And 2 for the person worrying about missing shield lob... You shouldn't really be in turn 5 if you don't have the accuracy to do it without worry. And if you do decide to go in under geared ...well then you get what you get for taking risks.

    This is a discussion on their choice of choosing character names as a way to tie break when aggro values are equal (AKA at the start of a pull for a fight) Seeing as how your char names initial are E.F it would be highly plausible you don't see this issue as you have the lowest alphabetical last name in your group.
