This AA appears bugged, and yes I've submitted an in-game bug report on it, just wanted to put something here in case anyone else looks. The AA is supposed to add a threat component to Shroud of Bertoxxulous, and if you examine the spell you see a new green line added saying 'Increases Threat to target encounter by xxx'. If I cast it on myself and go out and get smacked, I see the threat numbers procing when the Nihilistics damage procs, and I can measure the threat in ACT. However, if I cast Shroud on another player in the group, the Nihilistics damage proc still goes off, but the threat doesn't. Seems pretty clearly buggy. Would be nice to fix to help survival in dodgy pick up groups.
similar thing was happening with the warden aa adding threat to instinct. it wouldnt show up in the tooltips. however it was still working. if you have act check the threat gen and you may see it there even if its not registering whenh you examine the buff.
Er, I did say in the original that I had ACT running, and I checked - there is no threat proc if the buff is cast on anyone apart from the casting warlock.
This is the case casting it in raid as well. Verified with ACT, of course. Also, the enhance AAs don't seem to be affecting this or grasp of bertoxx for proc chance besides if the buffs are cast on the lock. All kinds of broken.
Shroud of Hate is fixed. Parse checked it today. Works good, last long time. Just wish Xelgad had responded earlier about this so we knew it was in the works.
*sigh* disregard my last post. It only works if you want it to incresase YOUR threat when you get hit. Useless when cast on others. Would have posted earlier to correct, but haven't been able to play much to test.
