Most Mobs Need To Path To Spawn Immediately
 

Description: A lot of static mobs in Velious should path back to their spawn point immediately after you feign death/lose aggro, and not be delayed. The mechanics are still this way on live. I know this is the case in Kael for sure, but I believe that was the case in many other Velious zone. Note that this didn't seem to impact a lot of wanderers (including Vindi/guards who wanders in his bridge). This meant a lot more advanced techniques were needed for monks with taggers/obstacle pulling, etc.

It doesn't seem likely that they would go and change pulling mechanics in velious zones 6 months after luclin came out (without a patch note even). There is more evidence that the op is correct then there is evidence that acedsilvas 15 year old memories are correct.

The OP is correct.

Pretty sure there is an archived developer post about this somewhere.
