Broken Class or Broken Driver?

[billybat]

<DIV>I'm feeling broken.  I'm the guild tank.  Lately in Labs and AoA, I've been losing aggro...not just the usual.  My target is switching to a pet or another raid member, with the mob as its target.  I then have to reacquire the mob (quickly) before the mob starts eating casters and healers.  This has happened whether we're relic farming or going after LV or names.  I'm very well aware of losing aggro...this is very different from the 'normal' aggro loss.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Last night, a group of us went exploring into Nizara in FD.  We dropped into the water once inside and swam down to the bathers and gossipers room.  I pulled a 3 group set of one gossiper and two bathers into the water.  After 10 seconds, I lost target completely, and couldn't get it back....clicking, tabbing (bad....very very baaad), F8...nothing worked.  It killed our conj and troub before i could re-click on a target.  Deciding this was a fluke, we tried pulling that three set 6 different ways...in and out of the water.  I noticed zero, none, 0, afflictions on me, yet the same results each time.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I did submit a bug report and feedback, but am curious...  Is anyone else seeing these 'things'?  Are they anomolies, or a 'feature' or 'by-design'?  I'm feeling broken...very very broken.</DIV>

<P>Do not feel broken. The mobs in that instance should be epic.</P> <P>The nazira will mez you..or something, it drops your target and does not allow you to retarget</P> <P> </P> <P>In your chat window you will see "You are not allowed to switch your target at this time"</P> <P> </P> <P>Its the way the mobs work...my healer yesterday had the same thing, couldn't heal me because they couldn't change targets..</P> <P> </P> <P> </P>

<P>Isn't there a way to break the mess?</P> <P>When that happens let them know you are mezzed, so they can slow down their dps so when the mess breaks it's easier to gain it back</P> <P> </P>

same issue last night.. that zone is pretty [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] tough.. i love it !.. easily the hardest single gorup zone in the game i think...My taunts would be resisted on the pull alot, my master II Protection aswell .. so i'd get 1 or 2 of the gorup and the rest would be on a healer..i'd have to quickly hit reinforcement then my AE to get agro back .. and then i'd get my target gone several times..gotta kill the Vitae (or what ever they are) quickly .. they hit HARD with heat aswell.. with 6200 heat resists i was still taking 4K hits from their fireballs and getting eaten by their other heat attacks.We took down 2 named, but their knockback and tail lash make it challenging .. i'm going to get alot more heat gear and we'll try again in a few days.definately a challenging zone.. my only issue is with its difficulty, we got crap drops.. both named were normal chests.. cmon if I am gonna be burning through a full set of armor, plus a repair kits worth in there and it costing me almost a play to repair then the loot needs to be worth the effort.<div></div>

<P>i had 12k heat resist when we went and there attacks were landing for 2.5k still, so dont expect getting it well over cap to help that much.</P> <P>we got to the 6th or 7th named and had it at 20% health when the server crashed,/ taken offline ......lol we petitioned and got told by a GM well its your own fault for going into the instance when there was a scheduled downtime for 7hrs on wednesday....awsome customer service FTW !!!</P> <P>and to top it all the ad pack of value for money means i can go back in another 2 days 18hrs  ...and in the meantime i get to run about killing greys and level 60 heroics for my thrills.</P>

<DIV>we got to the boss and lets just say its like a group going against an epic...I loved and hated it.  But had the same thing happened to me.  Also, its not just in that zone...i was fighting in PoA today and couldn't hold aggro for anything. </DIV>
