Weeee!!! Had some fun in KC today. There were 6 mobs on this pull I was tanking.

a skeletal caretaker: (00:57) 516738 | 9065.58 [Skar-Death Touch-9906]
Skar 4972.23
Dark 1814.53
Lind 1483.72
Ekor 391.02
Lazy 351.74
Shai 52.35

Really wish they would up the number of 3+ encounter fights in RoK. Agi line would pwn face.

most of that is still autoatk dmg too... even with only a 40% ae autoatk chance.

Agi line is total waste in RoK m8.. but yeah i wish there were more aoe fights in this game.. my warlock friend basically left the game because no aoe fights for her hehe

The lack of AoE Encounters for me really took away all the fun in playing my SK

Implementing more 3-5 mob encounters would, imo, single-handedly fix all things wrong with SK's.

It would:

bump us back up on the parse (easily ahead of guardians at least)
make us more viable raid MT's/OT's
make us more viable players in hardcore raiding guilds (in my opinion at least (who wouldn't want a 4-5k parsing SK? And I'm no where near T1 geared up yet.)
make our AGI line usefull again
epic would be more usefull with engaged mob hate (AE)
Make all our AE's usefull again - a niche we completely lost in RoK

I'm just sick and tired of the same old single target pulls, single target dps, not getting full affect from AE spells...

They *_rigged a fix for warlocks... OH HEY - Lets make their epic the fix for our completely retarded idea of making all RoK single target encounters!

So what is the reason they aren't implementing more AE encounters? Is it bc warriors are bitching bc they cannot hold agro against warlocks, SK's, and Wizards? Sometimes I think this game is developed by a select few classes that have too much pull on the types of content installed into the game. Or maybe its a uberguild that only wants to recruit Guards, and complimentary single target dps classes...

Anyhow I started thinking about it today and got fired up. Somewhat curious as to if something needs to be mentioned for the next expansion (before we get a repeat).

It wouldn't fix anything with SKs. Berserkers and Paladins would still be better MTs/OTs than an SK, and in fact a Guardian with AGI line for AE Auto-Attack would place them STILL above you in the parse.

You clearly haven't had a good sk then.

Guardian > Sk > Monk >Paladin > Berserker > Bruiser

Sks have insane aoe dps and enough utility to actually survive!

And Paladins have the same amount of utility to survive and do as much AE DPS + they have Amends on either a Swash or a Sorc for far more aggro than any SK.
