tell the hunters in the raid to misdirect for one. (if you have one in the raid) with me misdirecting our main tank, our tank has never had someone pull agro off them. the threat is temporary but it gives them time for vengeance to stack up.

Long unlive the Forsaken!
strange, as mage I pull aggro in 3 scenarios: 1st - nefarian hc with early mc, 2nd - I get 12k+ combustion (ticks for 14k, crits for 30k+ with some luck and procs at start, 3nd - ODS heroic. Other than that thats kinda impossible to pull aggro as, well, at least fire mage. My gear is very close to high end (368 Ilvl)
Pop images at the fight start, when your proc trinkets are coming up, get in a good combust, nuke through your cooldowns, then, 3 seconds before images fade, invis, after that, your threat should be minimal issue.
If you're a spec other than fire, omit combustion, and insert other coolown name
tell your tank to stop sucking, since cata I as a tank have never had an issue on threat for single target and I normally give a countdown so the casters can precast(or jazz hands as we call it)
I think there are enough constructive answers here to get a good picture of a solution for the OP.
Closing this before more flaming trolls wake up.
