Main Gauche increases Sinister Strikes threat by 50%. I was wondering if Main Gauche’s threat increase could apply to itself as well. Main Gauche is punishing to use as a global if you’re trying to hold threat(especially in Naxx). The 6-piece Draconic tank set incentivizes using Main Gauche more. It’s a super fun set bonus. But the raw threat from Main Gauche itself is very punishing.
I know Main Gauche received a threat boost in the previous phase, but it’s still a bit low to keep up with the Naxx changes.
Also, I don’t think this small buff would really hurt anything. Other tanks have really solid threat now.

Threat is a non factor and the best tank pairing rn is shammy rogue. Those 2 tanks don’t need anymore buffs. Rogues already do the highest DPS and have the highest avoidance of any tank.
I’ve heard warlocks had the highest avoidance this phase.
This is big and needed. Rogues are strong right now but suffer from having 2 threat dead GCDs at the opener of every encounter (unless you bug your local healer for HoT points). Having to often hard taunt to cover that duration on pull much of the time because you want dps to still parse feels silly when they literally threat buffed MG to try and make it relevant for this (it was at 125, and 100% on initial retunings in late BWL and felt fine).
Also warlock avoidance got nerfed into the ground because blizzard detected fun on their 4pc reducing demonic grace cd 50% and decided to make it less than 15% instead. At least we aren’t alone in the evasion nerf I guess

Not after the nerf to t3 4pc it’s rogues again.
