anyone notice any strange behavior on Chimaeron heroic this week compared to previous weeks

in the last 20% phase i will be just below tanks on threat but when the tanks die Chimaeron will go to say 5 other random people before targeting me evin though im top of the threat table
anyone know what is this? what has changed ?

yes i use omen its big enuff i can see 15 people on it
also the rest of the raid shows me as top its not just me to see this
yet Chimaeron will still randomly go to a bunch of other people first
its like Chimaeron is ignore my threat for some time

Are you tricks trading with another rogue? When 30 seconds expire, the threat will drop off. This would be about when the other rogue would tricks you again, once more raising your threat, but there would probably be enough time for Chimaeron to knock off a few people first.

i know how tricks works
i was the only rogue in group
didnt do anything to alter threat
no tricks /feint/vanish

Would you be running out to try to kite it first? That gives you an additional 20% threat buffer running at range.

Phrequency gains Phrequency's Cloak of Shadows.
Ignition's Ignition hits Phrequency for 25312 Fire.
Ignition's Ignition hits Phrequency for 28262 Fire.
Phrequency's Cloak of Shadows fades from Phrequency.

As far as I know Omen pulls its values directly from the WoW API, and there isn't anything available that is more accurate than the WoW API.
The times where Omen calculated the threat values by itself are long gone.

However according to its description on WoWAce, it still estimates the temporary threat gain for TotT, Misdirection et al.

Should be worth mentioning that Omen is limited to the update frequency of the WoW API, which is very low.
At least the authors of omen complained about that when leaving their own threat calculations.

Without timestamps, but one ignition:

While the immune part will always display only once in your combat log, you can get up to 4-5 immune ticks if you time it right. Just try it out yourself when a wipe is called.

From the 4.0.6 patch notes:

This confuses me, what is cloak "protecting" us from for Gravity Well. Does cloak prevent you from being sucked in, from the well spawning, drops the grounded debuff correctly as it currently does not?

For the most part, this seems rather bad. Changing our survival spell to make it more likely to kill us seems rather ridiculous. Either we can't be sucked in and therefore can't get the debuff, prevent the well from spawning and anger your raid, or drop the debuff when we cloak lightning rod. None of these seem to be a pleasant area, especially since cloak's standard effect does not stop Thundershock.

If the idea is to dissuade us from cloaking the lightning rod, why not make it so lightning rod can't be cloaked off?


Edit: Separate topic: Would anyone second the idea of stating that mutilate should be recommended for the Twilight Council? The elemental Monstrosity is definitely the push phase, and it occurs starting at about 30-35%, for Assassination's execute range. Combat has a bit going for it with potential for cleaving above 35%, but I don't see a lot of strategies bringing the bosses together. And by not a lot, I mean I haven't seen a single one yet.
