Get the right aggro count

[Corthezz]

Hello,
rather a theoretical question: Right now I get all units I am in combat with by iterating over all units I get by calling EnumVisibleObjects and filter out those who target me.

Now there are some special circumstances atleast in the version of WoW I work with:
If a mob is stunned it wont have a target for the duration of the debuff. Same goes for fleeing aswell feared mobs.
One can easily overcome this by adding conditions to the function which retrieves mobs I am in combat with but isnt there a better solution?

Maybe somewhere hidden in WoW.exe theres a function which determines if a mob is in combat with me which I didnt found until now? Or is my solution really the best I can get?

Thanks in advance

Yes there is a function which returns you a threat-like value. It's basically the threat which is shown you at the portrait of a monster or inside an addon like Omen Threat Meter.

Thanks. Lets hope this function already exists in the client version 1.12.1

No it doesn't. It has been introduced during WotLK or even later. Threat-Meters had to estimate the threat based on combatlogs and there was no information from the server at all.
