<DIV>Last time I checked (few hours ago) my Evade adept III still gives 18-30 points of hate reduction, useless even at level 5 almost, at level 36 I also have shadow that reduces some hate (adept I for me).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I get agro, not sometimes, not every once in a blue moon, but basically everytime I try to do max dps.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Brief intro: usually my tank is SK of the same level as me (36) and I told him that unless he wants to pay my poison Graven Embrace is not an option <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV>He does the usual cycle of taunts, buffs and dmg arts to hold agro, but if in the fight I use Elaa (assassin's blade lvl 30 training) and assassin's mark procs for me, not even Harm Touch and a full cycle of buffs/taunts gets agro back to him, no matter how many Evade and Shadow I cast, not even toggling attack off works.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Am I forced to not use Assassin's mark every fight I have Elaa up or what? Can' risk ti proccing for me after a 1k+ hit... In a way it's depressing to see this, in another it's fun to tank every 225 seconds :p</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>If I remember correctly in EQ1 the rogue Evade (combo of attack off and hide) was giving 500 points of hate reduction, which often if not always were enough to lose agro.</DIV> <DIV>I'd just love to see Evade fixed and scaling to a more appropriate hate reduction by level and spell quality at least and give less agro to some of our CA, such as the big hits and Assassin's mark proc.</DIV>
