That safe house post does not totally apply to this server. I am also not completely convinced the author understood exactly how it worked.
On this server you will get no social aggro from mobs who cannot currently see you. Note that sneak radius is greater than 180 degrees, I think about 200-220 degrees. Range attacks do not break sneak ( they do however break hide which will in turn break sneak so do not be hidden). Hide does not help with social aggro at all here. Also distance does not matter for social aggro if you are still in frontal vision of npc. Also keep in mind you can be sneaking so that initially only one aggros but if the mob you pull is still close enough to his friends and you move into their vision you will get social aggro. Being hit by melee or spell( even if resisted ) will break sneak and potentially give you social aggro if mob is still near his friends. Therefore if you want to pull casters this way use very long range or be next to a corner so you can very quickly block Los to prevent cast.

Until you learn an area well you should spend lots of time sneaking and coning mobs to get a feel for how far you can push the limits and still not be in mobs vision with sneak.

The truest words.
