I don't know if that pseudo-potency is also multiplied by your strength or weapon damage or something, but I assume it is, since I do ranged attacks and provoke on longer pulls instead of an AoE because it usually holds threat to the end even against DPS who can burst on the run.
If that's the case, then to steal aggro from a Provoke only tank, a DPS would have to do (2000 x 10) potency within the 25s before Provoke comes back off CD. Not 20000 damage, 20000 potency. Is there even a class in the game that does 20000 potency in a minute, let alone 25 seconds? I know from maths I did a while back that WHM is around 8000 per min, maybe 'burst phase in raidbuffs' is enough on an exceptionally 2min heavy class like DRK or such but yeh seems kinda difficult to reach to me
