Dealing with over aggro issues

[JackBurton]

Problem: If Master requires to switch targets often before targets are even dead. For example if your driving from the tank and maintaining aggro to all the mobs around. Then you have the problem where your DPS chases your masters target.

•Your tank is taking excessive damage. mobs are staying alive longer because damage to mobs is somewhat spread across multiple mobs out instead of focused on one at a time.
•your dps not focus killing one target at a time?
•Your toons are not taking out the most dangerous target first.
•idle time between death of a mob and dps acting on next target


Solution: ZorbatheGeek's guide can solve all those problems. He creates 3 targeting "modes" that can:

1- Normal Assisting - default FTL assist master
2- Assist and Hold Assisting - assists master only if current target is dead. Essentially a 2 target kill que.
3- assist focus and hold - attacks focus target regardless untill its dead, then attacks and holds onto next target. Essentially a 2 target kill que.

using a toggle button. (that i keep on my mouse) You can switch between these modes quickly depending on the situation.
