A tank sent me a whisper last night saying "you must hit hard as *!@#! I cant hold them from going to you"lol.
It was in a reg HoL run he was level 77 to my pretty well geared level 80. I explained things would changed once he hit 80 and got geared.
I actually enjoyed it. Had to MD, FD, and CC some. You dont get to do that much when running with well geared tanks that play thier class great.
I agree. I too have had a few issues with a few undergeared tanks. I use MD and FD each time they are off cooldown, and still can draw aggro. I back off my ES and AS when it happens, just let autoshot go for a few seconds, and it seems to fix the issue. I also sometimes switch targets when threat grows, and fire a freezing arrow at a mob to help with CC.
Geared 80 tanks don't seem to have this problem. We really have to watch our threat closely as SV.

I'm pretty sure we all have Omen or such. If a dpser can't resist leading the Recount chart or "proving" his leet dps, then he needs a reality check. I don't care what your dps is when you screw up and cause the wipe. Everyone makes mistakes, but watch the agro and be a better player.
Quoted for truth....
I've strongly encouraged other hunters in our guild to not use recount during raids. Our goal is to win as a team, not worry about solo dps. WWS reports are enough to look at and digest afterwards to look for improvements.
As for OP, yes, I've noticed my threat being higher at times, but FD is there for a reason, so I use it as often as necessary or I just autoshot for 1-2 times.

I'm currently having issues with any sort of tank (even the well geared ones, except for those from the highest up guilds)
I use MD already, but now I have to feign death within at least the first 30 seconds of combat, and sometimes later on.
Explosive shot's burst damage can sometimes be a pain in the butt...
