I honestly dont think slow is as effective of a proc as people give it credit for.

What's your reasoning behind this? Asking any shaman or ench about slow and it's threat generation is enough to dispel this as not true. How did you come to this conclusion?

Sorry i meant i didnt think its as effective as a proc on a weapon not referring to the aggro of slow spells in general. I know slow aggro is really good but for some reason i thought it worked like snare does here, where you get "spell did not take hold" message if a higher percent slow or snare is on the mob. For snare that also kills the aggro generation from the proc. It made using Kunzar Kujuch in groups with a snarer kind of pointless. Unless they changed that part and slow proc doesnt act similarly.

You.still get hate from a slow resist / slow did not take hold message. It's easy to see if the mobs turned away, you proc and he instantly flips to you.

I think spells with counters are huge threat, not sure the exact value of infestation v. wavecrasher. Weapon slows are generally lower values than shm slow (75% to wavecrasher...20%??) which means they're not going (at least I think) be as much aggro as a shm casting turgurs. Tash is some aggro with counters, but have a shm cast insidious decay on an inc mob and see if that doesn't snap some aggro to them ahha.

isn't poison based on counter? like 250 per counter? meaning 750 per proc for troch or scorpikis claw?

I think the counter aggro only happens once, so if its 250 for counter, its 250 once then 24 per tick or whatever dmg is.
