Spell aggro is only limited if you can’t cast the spell. Spells with certain components are extremely high in threat. Tash sticks for example for a melee vs the spell cast by an enchanter.
Dot damage aggro isn’t front-loaded. If it was spells like ignite blood and Splurt would act like 1-2k DD’s. They certainly do not.
The limited threat per proc spell effect (ie not having poison counters be cumulative) is annoying but the WESS was never intended to create twice the proc aggro of the red blade. Likewise it’s a truly stupid spell effect. Now it creates the proc aggro of a stun, slow, frostbringer, or ykesha which have some purpose to them. So you can actually pick a weapon that does good damage and has a functional proc, vs being a gimmick.
