Default Spell Double Attack and Agro

So I was ecstatic last night when my guild killed Druushk for the first time since I joined and I got my Mythical epic. The results were extremely satisfying on the parse.

However, later that night I ran CoA with the same tank I group with a lot. Normally he has no trouble keeping agro off me but last night nearly every time spell double attack went off (regardless of whether it was on Ice Spears/heatwave or Bolt of Ice) I would pull agro off of him. Has anyone else noticed a similar issue? And I wonder if it's simply the snap agro from a double spell attack, or if there's a hidden agro enhancer in there.

Discuss.

Tell your tank to stop sucking

Yeah, I've never experienced this. The occasional double-cast Fission sure, it'll pull agro but otherwise I can double-cast just fine without pulling agro.

Haven't experienced any increased hate generation from the double attack itself - the extra damage excluded - but yes, of course a double hit will provide a larger amount of hate. A double Fission for six hits will of course draw the attention to ya and BoI as well if it's an early hit or on an "aggro sensitive" fight. Learn to live with it or learn to live with it, your choice. But of course, you can always go back to your WoCP if it's too much...
