I know having an Enhaement Shaman that even wahing my threat meter like a hawk if I pull out arit string at the wrong time it's very possible Ian pull aggro when I didn't think I was in any danger of that at all. Supporting someone and managing a DPS's threat for them are 2 different things. The best way to resolve this is to give your Shammy a threat reding talent. Not to give a Paladin the talent so that they do it for you.
I agree. They should have just removed Blessing of Salvation and not given anything in return. Hand of Salvation is just
way too mh to be bothered with. :-) Seriously though, I don't think it will be terribly hard to use this skill. You typally know who your high threat people are going to be on a spif fight, and it's not that hard to see when a DPS is @ or above the tank on a long fight. Warriors, Shamans, Shadow Priests, and Ret Paladins have no way to shed threat (Vanish, Invisibility, Feign Death, Soul Shatter, e). Regardless of whether or not they take their resptive threat reding talents, whh look to be getting buffs, oe they're AT the tank, they'reapped on damage. Youan help with this spell AND give them a Blessing at the same time. It's
a nerf to Salv, but Blizzard looks like they're throwing a monkey wreh into threat as is, so it's not terribly surprising. Edit: 10% Dmg redtion for 10 sonds (100 DPS loss @ 1000 DPS total -- you lose 1000
dmg total) is not a ton if you're sitting at ~100k threat and we 20k of it in those 10 sonds. The dmg yououldontinue to do with that 20k threat buffer far outweighs 10 sonds of dreased dmg.
