SoW/JoW cause zero threat and need to be fixed
Paladins are very mana dependant and mana regeneration is a necessity in order to keep tanking effectively. They are also known as THE aoe tanks since they are able to generate so much threat to all mobs via ret aura, consecration, holy shield, redoubt, blessing of sanctuary, seal of wisdom, and judgement of wisdom.
However, there is a very serious problem with this server as wisdom procs DO NOT cause any threat whatsoever. Every point of mana regenned via a wisdom proc should give 0.5 threat. This is not the case. Righteous fury should also affect this just like seal of light and judgement of light. So, for every point of mana regenned by the prot paladin with RF on, they should be receiving 0.95 threat. This needs to be addressed immediately as it is a very game breaking bug.
All holy spells cast by the paladin are modified by righteous fury for all those who refuse to believe. This means blessings, seals, judgement procs, etc and should reflect this on turtle wow.

Yeah, this bug is pretty much singlehandedly responsible for knocking protadins from best threat generators to struggling to keep up with threat.
SoW is supposed to be the big threat seal for prot, but as it stands it generates literally 0 threat

Re: SoW/JoW cause zero threat and need to be fixed
Just some fun server history fact: Some time ago, maybe 6 months, judgement of light healing was credited to the paladin who casted the judgement, and the threat it did was also given to that paladin. Paladins on fights like Sapphiron and Vael could get a lot of threat from constantly healing the whole raid.
Then they changed it so the healing belonged to the person who got healed, because the previous system meant if a flagged person hit the mob and procced the judgement, the paladin will get flagged since technically the paladin healed that player. This was abused a bit to kill a few hardcore paladins so they changed it.
Funny, if you really look deep into it, hardcores made them nerf paladins

That wasn’t a nerf. That was a bug fix. The proc from light or wisdom gives threat to the person receiving it.Balake wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2023 8:37 amJust some fun server history fact: Some time ago, maybe 6 months, judgement of light healing was credited to the paladin who casted the judgement, and the threat it did was also given to that paladin.

Bumping because this is still a very serious bug for protection paladins

Re: SoW/JoW cause zero threat and need to be fixed
I thought mana gains caused threat for the person who gained the mana? At least that's how it works with all other mana gains I can think of.
Re: SoW/JoW cause zero threat and need to be fixed
Right now, wisdom procs cause zero threat to anybody. Resource generation outside of regular generation is supposed to cause threat. I know for a fact rage potions also cause zero threat too which also needs to be fixed.Getplucked wrote: ↑Wed May 31, 2023 7:52 pmI thought mana gains caused threat for the person who gained the mana?

Re: SoW/JoW cause zero threat and need to be fixed
Forgive me. I know I'm not as smart about wow as many here are. But wouldn't this kill priests on the threat meter? VE mana return is crazy high, and healing priests have the highest mp5 usually, couple that along with healing aggro. Or am I misunderstanding the mechanic?
Re: SoW/JoW cause zero threat and need to be fixed
I don’t know if vampiric embrace is working properly. This is for wisdom procs from paladins. Passive generation doesn’t cause threat. Active generation does. Potions are an example of this. If you pop a mana potion and it gives you 1000 mana, you gain 500 threat spread between all mobs on the threat table.Drubarrymooer wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2023 2:54 amForgive me.

Ok, cool. I didn't know the game delineated between the two. Good to know. ThanksBoras wrote: ↑Thu Jun 01, 2023 4:38 amI don’t know if vampiric embrace is working properly.

Re: SoW/JoW cause zero threat and need to be fixed
Still an issue and needs to be addressed.
