Anyone know what I might be doing wrong. I go tank bone dragon in CT and at times it moves back to the middle pad. Relic+1 Full AF2 3piece hero and 2 dl I don't know why it does that. Range dps getting multiple burst crits? It would be nice to see every player's threat level.

If you were loosing threat it would A) Change target B) no longer be flashing red to you. Check to make sure you are actually loosing threat.

If its just loosing threat... idk. Practice more harderly? Really should never loose threat as paladin.

I've noticed that when I shield swipe it soon after it goes back to the middle so /shrug And yes it can be pacified.

/wait addition to macros required for them to work on ps3. /wait .5 for instant abilities and /wait 2.5 for standard abilities. Without /wait the abilities following the first one fail, so you just have to keep pressing the same button over again till they all go off.

Ugh. Why do people keep posting this?!? Decimals are not factored into Macros. That was addressed in a Dev post LONG time ago. It rounds up. This .5 is 1 and 2.5 is 3.

Any chance of OP getting updated with newer gear?
NVM didn't read full post just skipped the first few bits.

Don't Shield Swipe. Pacification causes it to run off and try to attack someone else.

Pacification does no such thing. The Pacification debuff is a short "silence" of sorts that prevents the use of skills (with a few exceptions, mainly large abilities hard-scripted into boss encounters when they change phases) on its own diminishing returns timer. It has no aggro reset properties of any sort, so if a tank is losing hate on a mob by using Shield Swipe it is simply due to using it before having a solid hold on the target.

True, but it does seem to make Bone dragon freak out and run around until pacification wears off. The tank doesn't lose threat to someone else, it will still be flashing red on the enemy list. I'm assuming its a bug or related to the random spike attack he does to players since he cant use it while pacified. Seen it happen a few times, and after it wears off he runs back to the tank even if the tank does nothing...unless during that time he loses hate, but then thats because the boss was on the other side of the room.

Renewed my sub and working through the content! I'll start contributing again once I finish the grind.
