<p>My necro has some t1/t2/contested/instance raid gear, 140aa's, and all ad3/masters.  Before LU44 I was able to go to my mirror and load up my solo spec and have no issues with soloing or duoing with my, then mystic, defiler.  </p><p>Since LU44 my pet cannot keep agro from 1 lifetap or dumbfire cast nor can he get it back from me while I stand there and ward myself.  Now I am not sure if there is something broken on the tanks mechanics, but I tested this out on one of the Iksar see invis roamers in Seb yesterday just to make sure I wasn't loosing my mind /shrug.</p><p>I sent the ad3 pet with defensive stance in on the linked Iksar and dog and I counted 30 seconds with nothing being cast on my necro.  I have defiler wards and whatnot on the tank pet, and I also casted alacrity on the pet on pull (33% reuse/casting/recovery) just to test out how much dmg I would have to do in order to take agro and see how long it would take for my pet (full tank spec - STA/WIS/STR).  After 30 seconds of doing NOTHING with my necro, I cast the dumbfire Imps and I take agro from my tank pet.  This happens instantly and from both mobs.  So I sit there and keep myself warded with my defiler and I don't cast anything but Perceptor's Command on the Iksar mob.  I dont' see any resists over the head of the Iksar mob and it takes me 9 (NINE) casts of Perpector's Command for my pet to take agro back from 1 (ONE) of the mobs, and the only thing I have casted on that mob was the dumbfire Imps.</p><p> I then try it on the next pull with the tank pet in offensive stance.  This time I did not get agro right off the bat from the Imps but it only took 1 soulrot with no extra procs from praetor's and it did not land as a crit.  I then again switched to warding my necro while my tank pet is hitting for 400-800's on the mob and it takes me 10 (TEN) casts of Perceptor's Command for my tank to get agro again.  I then throw out 1 lifetap and bam I have agro on my necro for the rest of the fight.  </p><p>During both tests, I did not see 1 RESISTED message over the mobs heads, so I assume that the tank pet is group and single target taunting.  Perceptor's Command (8 aa's) also increases hate by 950+ (I am at work and don't have the exact number) and by the text it says it has a 100% chance to increase the hate position of the tank pet, or something to that effect.  </p><p> Please look into this issue with either the tank pet's taunts are not functioning or Perceptor's Command is broke or both since Perceptor's Command is supposed to act as a pet taunt.  I have submitted a /bug report on this as well in game.</p><p>Thank you,</p><p> Valdama - 80 Necro/80 Sage/400 Tink</p><p>Areubleedin - 80 Defiler</p>
