I'm currently running 5x affli locks at 120 and approx 295 iLVL.

The odd thing is that at around lvl 115 I did the Motherlode on normal and after a few attempts I managed to clear the instance, no real problems voids tanking, locks DPS'ing away. Now at 120 I can't even get past the first boss. Problem is that my voidwalkers can't hold the aggro and need so much healing. So I could hold off on DPS but then I'm health funneling him and generating threat that way.

I'm curious if it's the lvl scaling doing this or that maybe the voidwalkers ( and 2 voidlords ) aren't scaling with the iLVL of the characters ( ie total hp, threat generation ).
DPS wise I think there is no real problem hence why I pull the boss from the tanks. It seems to be something with the voidwalkers

Probably undergeared for the dungeons so I’ll go do some wq’s for higher gear.

100% a gear issue, get those world quests and warfronts gear going then have another crack mate!!

There is also a power gap from 115-120, most classes get weaker with how the scaling works. The Ilvl gearing up will definitely help and also with the way the dungeons and difficulty is designed this expansion they seem to have more health/mechanics than previously, so some comps without a real tank suffer greatly.

That's good to know as I tend to lag behind on gear.
