Hello
I've just recently got back into leveling my druid and tanking mainly for guildies. I did Utgarde Keep last night and was surprised to be struggling to hold aggro.
My general rotation is pull with faire fire (feral) and then start up with a swipe or a mangle then a swipe to get a basic grip on multiple mobs. get a couple of lacerates on the main target, then throw in a few more swipes or tab between targets and get lacerates.
I'm generally pretty quick with the key and the mouse. so the whole process isn't very long.
Then I switch back to main target and go all out...to which I found myself struggling to stay ahead of the threat. Granted, one of the people in our party was an 80 fury warrior (he had just respeced...he's usually my tank when I heal on my paladin). Him and the mage in our party were pulling about 900 dps...and there I was struggling to keep up. What's wrong here?
My general rotation is Mangle whenever its up, lacerate to 5, and then depending on situation go between lacerate, maul (if nough rage), and swipe.
This is the standard rotation I used in BC and it generally did the job...but last night I felt like I was back in BC. I remember tank threat being increased and easier to build but that wasn't the case. I have a tankadin in similar level gear at a similar level who doesn't have one issue at all with threat (Even against 80 enhancement shamans). And here my feral druid was struggling to keep threat on one target against a mere 900 dps.
Am I doing something wrong? Missing a talent somewhere? I was pretty thorough when I respeced. In fact I've respeced more than a few times trying to get it all just right.
My build is pretty much a hybrid tank/dps build. I'm leveling so I don't want to gimp my ability to kill stuff in cat while at the same time still having enough tanking talents to be a viable tank in instances on the way up.
