possibly a bug, on just heroic groups i never have problems with agro even with high dps classes... maybe aa setup? dunno, your gear seems pretty decent so i wouldnt think it should pull that easily...

-edit, do you spam taunts in between chain casting? (most likely but dosent hurt to ask)

Aye, was kinda weird - I had siphon hate up, and got the hate transfer from Darks Assa and aggro just seemed to bounce!
I have left it off since then, if grouped with a Hate transfer class ...

But well tbh, am not grouping with the SK too much anymore, so it is hard to tell for sure! kept only to the AA line out of lazyness and lack of choice in the other line!

Was this group or raid? Where you tank or slacker dps/offtank?

If this was in a group, yeah thats really odd.
If it was a raid and you where offtank/whatever, and the assassin pulled it off the MT and you tried to save him, then you should be taunting more throughout the fight. Our taunts suck, so using them through the fight, won't peel aggro from a normal MT setup (atleast with a zerker MT), and it will keep you high enough on the hate list to HT/DM/Rescue and get aggro if needed.

I have never had problems with agro on my sk until I joined guild that raids .. they can easily take mobs off me now .. and I still chain cast taunts everytime they're up

and with grp mobs always grp taunt first and then aoe my ass off and still they can take them off .. unless death march is up .. then they usually stay on me .. but even with AA's its 2 minutes and 35 seconds so its up only like every 3rd - 4th fight

few tricks I've seen to get agro back is to use Venomous slam and Smash and right after smash Insidious promise .. I'm somewhat casual player and don't usually go deep in things but think stuns on those skills do the trick get em off dps'ers

What stance do you tank in... offensive or defensive? I find swapping to offensive 90% of the time solves most agro problems (esp if the problem is an over agroing fury healer *s********)

And finally make sure he casts the hate transfer on you AFTER you ast siphon... tho after grouping with an SK recently I'm convinced that siphon is a bit buggy and has a habit of cancelling out other transfers. Might be an idea to not cast it and see what happens.
