Agression, does it work?

For a while i was under the impression that it didn't, but that could have been wrong or since fixed.

If it does work, then how does it?

Is it that every action I do produces +hate, and -5% agression will give me 95% of the hate that someone else doing the same action? If a mob is exactly 10 feet from both me and someone else, will it run to them because I have more -Agression?

Yes, it works.

Yes, -5% aggression would give you 95%, and +10% would give you 110%.

What.
 
So I'm assuming ever action gives you a certain amount (XX) of aggression. Whether that's standing within aggro range of the mob, casting or sitting while pulling, hitting it with a brick, or landing a debuff. With a -5% aggression mod, where those normal actions would give you XX agression, now they give .95*XX aggression. With a +5% aggression mod, they now give 105*XX aggression.

While probably the most useful for tanks and high dps classes (wizards and rogues), I am not sure how much more useful it is for something like enchanters: given that I doubt even -50% aggression would let you slow on the inc without aggro. But I could be wrong.

Maybe not on Inc but it allows you to do your job earlier than you would otherwise be able to do it and allows you to do it more throughout a fight.
 
Right, I just don't know how big of a difference it would end up being for those classes for whom aggro isn't generally a major problem. For instance, I wouldn't personally exchange say 50 hp for 5% aggro reduction as a bard, since I can just jolt every 5 minutes and I'll pretty much never get aggro otherwise. (Heck, I rarely get aggro even when I don't jolt).

For rogues however, -aggression is <3.
