Target priority
So I have a minion master build on my necro. Before the December 10th update, an enemy would attack whatever attacked it first. Now, they always attack me and never attack my minions with the exception of a few rare occasions. Is this a bug or is something behind the patch notes?
Are you talking about PvE? To my knowledge aggro is still acting the same.
Yeah PvE
Bosses tend to also only go for me, while before they would switch targets constantly.

Did you change anything in your build or rotations? I used to always get targeted by basically everything because I would basically start every fight by rolling my face over the keyboard.
I’d imagine it is something that was changed somewhere else, and just happens to coincide loosely with the patch timing. If you’re having issues with bosses going after you, my suggestion is to let your allies start off the fights, hang back a little bit before jumping in (they’ll generate more threat than you on the aggro table that way), and also hang back anytime you’ve gotten too much attention, because distance is a factor as well.
With minions, try aggroing them without hitting the boss (using a targeted skill like Dagger auto, way outside range but within around 2k range), so that they run up and start hitting the boss before you. They have pretty decent toughness values, especially Golem/Bone Fiend, so they should generally take aggro away from you.
