KLH Threat Meter FYI

Hey all. If you're not running with the latest version of KTM (19.18 or higher), none of the new 2.10 changes are registered correctly if you managed to get the addon to work by modifying the compatability line.

Big ones in my ming are the change to Druid mangle and warrior revenge threat mechanics/damage. ie: Running a lower version of KTM will display revenge threat using the older, larger amount of static threat, plus the new larger damage threat. This will end up with revenge being seen as producing much more threat than it actually does now.

Just FYI, as I couldn't get mine to load yesterday so went on a hunt for a newer version. 19.18 uses estimated values though, since 2.1 wasn't live when he put it together.

If Revenge's added threat really makes or breaks your tanking, something is up. Other than that, its not a huge margin of difference... it already was slightly off with some values. Just dont follow it religiously and only use it as a guideline and your good. Meaning, if you're tanking, and you're greatly lower, then pick up the pace, and if you're way ahead, use the abilities to lessen the blows.

Some people take it too seriously, but it is a rediculously nice tool either way.

Yep, I know I might be in trouble when I cant see Pales threat on the meter anymore

No worries. I was just passing on the info to others who didn't know.

I don't even look at the threat meter as a tank. It was originally designed for everyone else to see how close they were to the MT's threat, and only ever as a rough guideline.

i think Heaven's point was that it (KTM) was updated, but doesn't work correctly; and his post was probably an FYI to that effect.

If heaven is correct, he makes a very good point, revenge threat is going to be represented in KTM drastically higher than it should be. I spam revenge everytime its up so I'd imagine it would affect the represented threat quite a bit.
