| Omen is a threat meter. Basically, enemies in WoW decide who to attack
by deciding who is the most threatening based on the abilities you use.
What Omen attempts to do is provide reasonably accurate estimates of
your group's relative threat level on individual enemies, so that you
can see when you're in danger of pulling aggro (or, if you're next on
the snack list if your tank bites it). This info is usually only
critical in raids, where only tanks can survive aggro, but it's useful
for any multi-player situation. |
