Does anyone else feel like elementalists are almost always #1 target of most bosses?

My guild has noticed this to, usually in CoE most bosses dotn even bother to go for anyone else until Im dead, they even have me running around in purpose since the bosses just follow me regardless of what i do ( :C ) , Im looking at you, Lupicus, among countless of other bosses in FoTM , CoE, HoTW and CoF p1 final boss.

Thoughts?

I think it’s due to the healing. I’ve noticed while playing Necro that the blood fiend is almost always the first to be targeted. I couldn’t say how the AI prioritizes agro, but you could try doing nothing but healing next time and see if that still draws you agro, even though you’re not hitting the boss.

I stopped using a Shield on my Engineer because it was giving me mad amounts of threat even with a Flame Thrower on. Usually something along these lines (obviously not a shield but another factor).

The only time that I dont have aggro is when an extremely tanky guard or another ele is in my party. The only way someone takes aggro is if he heals more often than me and has more toughness or spams a crapload of condis. I dont hope anet hopes us to go glass and dont heal…
