Dear Aggrend,
Any chance you could look at either voidwalker or Felguard, they cannot hold aggro for sh** (Toffee)… 
Thanks
they do need fix this
I suggest you get a threat metter ad on if your destruction warlock spec dont even bother trying ask your voldy felguard to hold threat moment you crit over done zo
You don’t need to go 100% damage to kill everything. I think it’s intended that you need to hold back a little.
Still more threat than a warrior tank.

Yes it should be this way for affli and desto warlock… but if you specialize in demonology there should be somehow a beast mastery hunter like tankiness of pet - which is not the case.
if your playing afflection or destro why the hell aren tyou using master channeler when your soloing
besides destruction sucks at leveling dont expect your vold walker to hold threat for you if your spamming max rank shadow bolts in classic
I do agree that torment needs do little more damage but threat of vold walker sounds like impatient skill issue
I think the problem is the spellcast pushback on shadow bolt and incinerate and not “i take too much damage and need to reg a lot”… master channeler should be used by 100% of players while grinding mobs so there is zero time and silver wasted on drink and food.
i don’t understand why voidwalker doesn’t simply get a 100% taunt like hunter pets.
felguard though uhhh, probably not a 100% taunt, but a high threat ability… because felguard is many leagues stronger than voidboi, so giving him a 100% taunt would make warlock too strong.
I always tend to think that some people don’t use the books to upgrade their demon skills and that’s why they can’t hold aggro.
Damage is threat its just muitiplier + damage + threat
Torment doesn’t do damage. its just an aggro generator, and a really bad one at that.
you don’t understand warlock. first thing warlock is a debuffer and supressor. your first duty is apply curses and dots. wait a bit after your voldwalker uses torment few times. it should have over 600-700 threat
thats about 6-8 attacks and 2 torments 800+ threat low level thats 600 threat
If you have more then 1 target then use suffering. dont have suffering on auto cast need cast that yourself
Master Channeler + Unstable corruption or (Imo, corrution (Ampily curse) yes i take aggro. but thats fine cause of life drain
now with just casting shadowbolt its different dont use voldwalker if your destro spec you never use void you use imp
nah, max upgraded voidwalker at lvl 60 can’t hold aggro for more than maybe 3 seconds, and that’s if you wait for him to walk all the way up to the mob and use torment before you start opening with your ramp-up dots like curse of agony, then corruption and then immolate, at which point there’s a solid 80% chance immolate will get you aggro… god forbid you open with a shadowbolt, the voidwalker doesn’t stand a chance even if he pops torment AND suffering (both are supposed to be pure aggro abilities, with one of them being an aoe growl. (i say growl because its not a taunt)).
the only thing that makes void worth using in pve is the ability to sacrifice it for a shield and pop a new one if your fel domination/master summoner is up.
with the levels of damage we got on our characters in SOD the warlock pets (at least the voidwalker) needs to be sent some serious help, because he is not viable.
you do know have wait about 5-10 second before you start blasting right
ya good luck with that.
that’s literally why they need to send voidwalker some help, because waiting 10 seconds is the only way you get to actually dps the target without stealing aggro with 100% guarantee (and even then, its sketchy).
try this; send in the voidwalker and wait 20 seconds.
see how many shadowbolts you get to launch before you get aggro.
my guestimate is 3 bolts before you get aggro.
Well, im fine with that if warlocks get a deadzone too
perhaps we should just take away hunter pets’ taunt from their rune and restrict them to growl like they used to be?
even better, we could nerf the health and armor of all hunter pets that isn’t a bear or a turtle since cats, serpents, wolves and boars (etc. etc.) are not tank pets.
wouldn’t that be fun?
i’m gonna regret asking but what’s your justification for warlock getting a deadzone in return for their tank pet being able to tank?
why should hunter be the only pet class who has a properly functioning pet taunt?
just cause cant control your damage. when your pet is out. dont need be salty to another class cause your bad at warlock
Yes why not? Its so bad nobody uses it anyway.
Living under a rock ? Hunter pets nerfed xxxxx times already
i can guarantee you that a hunter who isn’t running the beast mastery rune cannot control his damage (aggro) either.
the only saving grace is the pets ability to literally taunt (not growl).
