    I'm happy it works for you and your own ;) It doesn't take away from the fact that you will probably have to retaunt more than your regular refresh taunt and possibly do pick ups from the aggro drop of WW. In the very later rounds this can cause a potential wipe when it doesn't have to.

    I never knew what it was for months. I'd be sitting there in Nexus, have total aggro, get knocked on my *** and then magically lose aggro. I didnt know WW was busted until after I switched powers.

    Same we use WW just fine up to round 6 np, the disconnects is the real issue.

    He didn't say you can't use it, it just detaunts and sometimes could lead to a very untimely death. If it's working for you kudos, I think he's just putting this information out so people know.

    I prefer to keep WW as a nice shield, you just have to be aware of the fact that you have to take that added time of no blocking to cast inescapable storm as well to maintain the aggro through the aggro-drop of WW.

    It definitely drops aggro / doesn't taunt as it should.

    Retaunting with another power works for me.

    Um yea its a bug. And ive witnessed it 1rst hand in SM. Using WW will drop aggro, had it happen on ursa alot. The OP is not telling any1 how to play, hes simply telling people the power is bugged and can hurt the grp in SM when its used.

    Exactly! I'm glad you read and have witnessed what I'm talking about... Although it sucks it is still there regardless.

    Meh, he misinterpreted your reply the same way I did. You did say it wasnt going to end well :( I'm just putting out info for those that don't realize this about WW.

    I understand that some of you run with a broken mechanic and that's fine. Power to you :D

    End of the day, if you do pop WW in SM you have a 50% (probably being generous) of it dropping aggro. Yes you can retaunt, buttttttt that still leaves the boss to at least doing one attack on the squishes. In SM one attack is a KO. Not to mention the waste of power trying to retaunt and gain back aggro.

    I don't know if Immortal still has it saved on his twitch account, but he recorded the broken effects of WW. You guys should check it out at www.twitch.tv/DCUO_Immortal

    Id rather use WW before using clownbox! I think TA's tanks do just fine without clownbox....I could be wrong though...

    Don't post anything you were not a part of. Black Adam's Pulse Beam damage was stated by the developers was bugged and doing wayyyyyy more damage than it was supposed to.

    We tried using CB to mitigate that bugged damage. That's the ONLY time we ran it lol and the only reason why. Thanks for watching our streams though ;)

    Like I already stated, if you want to run a broken mechanic power to you, but please refrain from attacks without full knowledge on the matter bud.

    Best of luck ;)
