A de-agro idea for squishy people in groups...
Im not 100% positive as to how agro currently works, but either way, whether it works randomly or based on something else I think this would be beneficial.
It should be a gem that belongs to the psych magic area, I think, as that makes sense. Perhaps some weaker versions in the Life magic area as well. It should also only be valid in a situation where there is a valid target to switch to, obviously. It should also have some effect that lasts for a time so that whatever you cast it on cant just switch targets again. It should have some sort of mana or energy cost but should be more likely to land than a taunt, I think. Perhaps have a few ranks of them that grant an extended timer to the effect, reduce mana, or decrease resist chances.
What it does: (one or both of the following, could be seperate gems)
1. Forces target to change targets. (even if its not attacking you)
2. Forces target to stop attacking you.
This could be useful in situations where a tank lacks a taunt for w/e reason or it doesnt land. Or maybe you dont even have a real tank and need to spread out the damage some amongst the group. It could be a useful tactic in a number of ways and I dont see it being harmful.
This idea would also fit in well in a world where multiple enemies could appear...not that that exists...yet...just saying
