Hrm... you may want to use the Lucid Dream once you are about to rip the agro (or once you do), not before even attacking, since it halves your current agro built.

I think this is a 2ndary effect of Tank DPS taking a hit and DPS in general having some more bursty aspects.
We may be seeing this for a while till 1) SE boosts the agro generation even more or 2) tanks gets out of the habit of only doing 1 or 2 agro AoE skills before jumping onto the DPS stance/skills :/
