On old retail (Fennin Ro Velious era) my mage at level 24 headed to Sister Isle in Ocean of Tears to blow up some sisters as it was the right thing to do as a dark elf. I used a focused level 24 Water pet, pulled a Sister at Max range with the level 16 Shock of Flame doing 90-something damage, and would let the fire shielded water pet hold aggro while I would have a seat to med for the first part of the fight.
That is blatantly, and quite firmly impossible to do here. I'm not quite sure of what's up, but you have to love-tap a mob on pulling for a tiny bit of damage to attempt to have a seat to med while the pet does its thing at the start of a fight. I have to sit at a greater range away from the fight too if I try it. So no, pet aggro is not "just like I remembered it."
