Don't get me wrong, I am not saying it doesn't help if you want to use one. But from my experience at least I don't need to cast spells that fast to pull agro. Typically if I am in a group and someone keeps pulling agro while you are spamming Disease Cloud, the problem is the group member hehe, not your casting speed.

We're more or less on the same page, yeah. You can definitely get by without, hence me also agreeing there's little point in getting one until you get one that does a junk buff along with it. However there's something to be said for being able to tell your groupmates to play however they enjoy without regard for aggro generation. Like the GCD makes it easier to get in three aggro spells in the time a shaman can do malo/slow since the shaman I mostly duo with is casting those spells (and damage spells often enough) as soon as the target's in range. It's by no means a required item, just something that lets everyone play a little looser.

Agreed!

I usually have 3 different configurations for groups, depending on the severity of their ability to pull agro.

My first configuration is https://wiki.project1999.com/Ancient...ched_Flamberge and no GCD item. If I can pull that off in a group, I can maximize my DPS and tankiness.

If that isn't working, my second configuration is to switch to https://wiki.project1999.com/Frostwrath + https://wiki.project1999.com/Shield_of_Midnight for more melee hit agro.

If that still isn't enough, I'll equip a GCD item to increase spell speed. I rarely need to do this.

It depends on the situation. SK's are better for pulling and soloing anything that can be feared. Paladins are better when you can't fear/stun mobs.
