Not wierd at all, drain life counts as healing and healing aggro is way above anything else.

Only time im pulling aggro of VW is with full dots + shadow bolt / drain life / health funnel. otherwise its completely fine.

Ive noticed sometimes that, if you attack first with a DOT he does not go attack, but if its a castable spell he eventually goes.
Aswell once you finished killing your main target, he doesnt attack the next unless the mob attacks you

level and spec?
I pull aggro if I cast immolate. Siphon Life, Agony and Corruption is semi-fine though.

Actually healing aggro is below damage, since 1hp healed = 0,5 threat, versus 1 damage = 1 threat. But it makes 1 hp drained by Drain / Siphon Life worth 1,5 threat indeed, putting them above other damage spell.

Thing is, Drain Life isn't an healing spell. This is a transferring spell. Same for Siphon.

Doesn't it comes down to the same regarding the threat of the healing component?

I think it does, without being considered like an healing spell. (Easy to check : put +heal gear, nothing changes)

Off topic : You should know, what's the best way to report bug ? Ticket IG or on the forum, or via PM ?

No idea tbh.
I just stopped reporting minor bugs, I'm taking notes of them and am waiting for the official bugtracker release now.

It seems like with voidwalker aggro the way it is it's actually easier to pull two mobs and chain fear one and dot and vw tank the other.
