Problem with Ragnaros’s threat

Anyone else noticing that Ragnaros drops threat randomly and will kill a melee even if the tank has aggro? Our guilds last two rag clears had multiple melee dps killed at random.

It’s happened to my guild every week, here is a thread that might help

Thanks! Has anyone figured out a way to get around it?

Happened to one of our rogues this week.

I think he was going full steam tho because the boss was nearly dead and just cut the margin too close.

Threat meter is not exact either, it’s providing you information based on how we the players understand the threat generation of the tanks.

As a result of you tread the ragged edge of sanity you may get wacked.

Also please note that threat meter does not always accurately function, as a result you may be a lot higher than the tank because the meter is not representing the tank correctly. Example some times Ony’s fireball does not wipe the threat of the main tank on the threat meter.

(PS read the redit post too, good info)

Regarding rag (ranged) don’t worry about it, but our main tank / off tank are geared enough that this alleged bug is not actually causing us problems.

The raid leader calls the melee out, then they call them back in, so melee DPS on tag in our raids is never anything to write home about, but typically no one dies either.

yea he tend to do that very fast too as in he turns around and 1 shot a melee behind lol

he tend to do that to 1 or 2 melee
