In BWL the drakes shed aggro with wing buffet, broodlord reduces aggro (temporarily?) with his blastwave and so on and so forth. Bosses tend to have some variable that gets thrown into the mix that would mess up the simpler aggro trackers (and it does, such mods have been created before, but were mostly abandoned as useless since they did not track aggro reduction due to knockbacks and such.)

Threatmeter, which GG linked below, had a pretty ingenious solution to this problem. Since exact numbers are known for skills/damage/healing, they have a "Knockback Discovery" method. Essentially, the mod keeps track of everyone's aggro and when the MT loses aggro to someone else, it knows how many knockbacks the MT has taken and the % difference in pure aggro (excluding knockbacks) from the MT and the new aggro target.
Run this many times over, and you get a more and more accurate result of just how much aggro is lost for each deaggro ability.
Trade yourself in for the perfect one. No one needs to know that you feel you've been ruined!
