Recently I have been losing aggro more often in parties. I am currently running around with almost the best pre-kara gear available. Got my +Def where it should be. My dodge is a bit low, but pop my Badge of Tenacity and/or Adamantite Figurine and no worries.
I don't have alot of +hit yet, and will be working on that, but do you guys have any other ideas?? With decent healing (in a good pug), I could usually hold aggro on at least 3 mobs at a time. Now it seems like any more than 2 is asking for trouble.
It keeps me on my toes, but the better gear is supposed to help you relax a bit instead of running around all over the place chasing the mage,hunter,lock, etc.
Then again maybe I noticed it more today cause I was PUG-ing with a bunch of idiots.
