Spells: Disease Cloud appears to have broken aggro

I'm pretty sure this is not true.

Perhaps not, but when I tested it in-game just this past week, that was the result observed. I am open to it being caused by something other than level disparity, but the simple fact is that against the same aggro generated by the Shaman (X number of slow casts), the level 54 SK has to cast disease cloud more times to achieve the same effect (flip aggro back) than the level 60 SK does. Perhaps there's something else at work, like one character simply generates higher hate from spells than the other due to some sort of unknown quirk? I'm open to ideas.

EDIT I have NOT tested it--or even been online on my Shadow Knight--in the few days since the very latest patch (been mainly testing stuff on various test chars) so it is equally as possible that something was just recently borked beyond anything I've experienced above. Perhaps even likely. If the aggro is exceptionally low to nonexistant on Green it would suggest a separate issue since, as noted above, on 'blue' the 54 can still use the spell for hate generation even if it is a hair less effective than with the 60. In that case consider it a free bump to an important issue.
