So how do I split pulls as a monk now? I feel really useless other than bringing dps to groups now.

You are useless, cause brad mquad's word is the law.

Shit not making any sense? Why does your class exists? Well, here's the answer for you:

Isoka, sounds good but I played around a bit the other day and if you pop up sneak and get a few to aggro you'll either get social aggro from the rest of them or if they are far enough you'll get the few still facing you but as soon as sneak drops(when you take or deal damage) the rest will come charging back if they haven't hit their spawn point yet.

Yup, need to find good fd spots and that's it.

Yup, need to find good fd spots and that's it. Exactly.. Place your FD just outside of aggro range from the spawns and stand up as soon as mobs land at spawn and stand back up..

Can we sneak pull from behind still and get mobs solo as long as other mobs backs are turned still ?

After experiencing it yesterday, it's not exactly how I described it. Need to practice a bit more to be 100% sure of game mechanics

Don't play a monk so I don't know but from what i've heard this sounds exactly like it was on live.

Its alot closer to how it was on live. It is still wonky though. I am happy they got rid of the sneak mem blur. However with out having the ability to break casting with LOS and resists breaking FD still splitting casters is damn near a no go.

"However with out having the ability to break casting with LOS and resists breaking FD still splitting casters is damn near a no go."

You can't interrupt their casting, but being out of line of sight prevents them from *starting* a spell cast. What I've been doing when pulling a caster is aggro it, then run out of LOS, wait for the spell to land, then immediately feign afterword before the mob has a chance to run into sight to start another spell. It's tricky, but better than nothing.

Skill is returning to EQ.

Its like bathing in warm sunlight on the first day of spring.

Please do not say such shit brings back painful memories of WOW kids.

I would like to agree with you though that pulling with a monk is again fun.
