[h2]Threat Improvements:[/h2]
We've made some improvements to how threat is generated by players and how aggro affects when enemies choose to change targets. The following improvements have been made:

• Champions will now generate the most amount of threat of all classes while using Shields.
  
• Champions while using Two-Handed Weapons and all other classes have had their baseline threat reduced.
  
• Added distance from target threat modifiers to enemies. Players within melee range of enemies will generate more threat against the enemy than players outside of melee range.
  
• Added threat change thresholds so that players below the top threat target must exceed the top threat target by a certain amount before an enemy changes targets.
  
• Adjusted the threat calculations for taunt effects from Champion abilities.
  
• Increased the range and taunt duration of Cull the Weak for Champions.
