I'll DL it and give it a whirl in MC on Saturday. Doesn't look like it takes FD into account, and the behavior on Feint is likely spotty as well.

In other news, this game gets easier every day because of an inventive mod. Ingenuity FTW. At least until they break it.

I would imagine you'll run into the same range problem with Damage Metres, unless you had multiple people with it synched.

I've been running this but find the problem
is that very few people run it, especially the
tanks.

Can I bump this in the hopes that tanks
will run this mod a bit more ? Smiler

just got this myself and played around with it a bit. Seems pretty nice though I would rather see my threat as a percentage of the MT than as a percentage of the total. All I need now is to get all my MTs to get it :P.

I used it for a little while, but nobody else did at the time, so I dropped it again.
I'll reinstall it and hope for better luck this time.


EDIT: Just tried it out again, and it seems to be working pretty well.
Only problem is, I was the only one in tonight's Ony raid that had it Frowner

I tried using one of these a while back.

It just didn't seem to work. Fire Crits must generate more aggro than normal because of ignite, because I wasn't able to rely on this thing.

Maybe this one will work.

I need to make all the DPS in BA install this thing to get a good idea of whether or not it works.

They don't usually work correctly unless everyone in the raid is using it.

I'd love to see more people use this. I have it on for every raid - occassionally I see one or two other people on there. Doesn't help much, then Frowner

Hey guys, somehow I found myself on your site while sitting here at work. Anyway's, I just wanted to comment that Threat Meter is probably one of the greatest add on's created, falling short of CT just barely.

However, it only works if every single person in the raid has it installed. It registers everything accurately, FD Fade whatnot, and as a hunter has become an invaluable tool.

I can push my DPS to put myself right below the MT and OT before FDing. Or I can auto shoot from there for a while and hold it right below them. Either way I have both a numerical and percentage value of exactly how much aggro I have on the bosses aggro list.

This has become an invaluable tool as we've progressed through more and more content. It is nice to know exactly how hard you can push before pulling aggro.



The only downfall's to this add on are that it can only track 1 mob's threat meter at a given time, you must Set that mob to be the "main target" for it to be extremely accurate. So bosses with multiple tanking targets are as usefull per se, however you can still use this as the main targets threat meter for your last push.

Anyway's, as mentioned. Bored at work and decided to contribute my two cents. Have fun in Game.
