I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but the Mercenary's threat drop Flare Gun is on the GCD but the Commando's threat drop Diversion is off the GCD as well as all the other AC's threat drops. BioWare, maybe you should fix this. If this isn't an issue with anyone else let me know, could be on my end, but I've checked and double checked.

 

Edit: Just saw an error in my post, I've fixed it. To recap, the Mercs threat drop Flare Gun uses the GCD and the Commando's threat drop, Diversion, does not use the GCD. Sorry for any confusion, this is something BioWare needs to fix.

I think on my commando, threat drop didn't flash all icons, but will check once get back from work.

sorry, got mixed up with sage, commando is to low lvl, wont check

sorry for mix up

Just checked on my BH and Cmmndo and both Chaff Flair and Diversion have 45 second cooldowns. However, only the BH's ability affects the GCD.

 

HTH

Wow, if this really is true it definitely needs to be fixed. This gives commandos an unfair advantage over mercs in pve and seeing how they are essentially mirror classes this shouldn't be.

People were talking about it for a long time. I finally decided to post a bug report (usual bug report response). You would think that it would be a known bug, but apparently not. I got overwhelming response when I asked why it wasn't listed: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=590196
