Flux staff (and arrow/thrown item) has a smaller agro radius than a spell or facepull - I know multiple specific mobs in certain zones that can be pulled without other mob agro by flux staff but facepulling you will catch other mob agro.

In all honesty I don't know anything about aggro radius with different kinds of pulls.

The elemental debuff is not for nothing either, its worth using it on every mob you are going to cast elemental nuke on even at lvl 60

Have to completely disagree with this. The debuff is so small that it makes almost no difference, it can get resisted a fair amount, and the hate generation is too high. Unnecessary aggro needs to be avoided as a wizard

Also if a mob happens to start attacking the cleric or someone else sitting in camp i'll agro with stun to give the party member time to get away and I can deal with the mob until someone comes to tank it.

If you pull it off with flux staff you can park it somewhere else right away with root wherever you want, no need to wait

Its not that great at taunting/getting agro if a group is beating on a mob.

First of all, this is demonstrably false. Like I said the taunt value on this is much higher than you think, and you're the only wizard I've ever heard of saying this. When we took on DTing mobs as a lower level wizard I'd be able to get aggro (with no other spells) for the 2nd DT with about 5 clicks of the staff. The only problem was that sometimes I would end up getting aggro TOO early and get meleed to death before DT.
Second of all, if a group is beating on a mob why on earth would you want to take aggro as a wizard, unless you're trying to take DT or something?

If anyone in your group is getting hit or a charm breaks you should definitely use Tishan's (both clash and discord should be in your spell bar :P)

Think it just depends on the situation and who you're with.
Bottom line: If you stand there and chain whatever wizard spells you want and I spam the staff I'll hold aggro over you.
