proof? If there is already proof posted on the forums can you just link that thread please.
Otherwise please provide proof.

I recall reading someone mention that spawn point business. So I'm not trying to be a jerk and call you out or anything. I'm sincerely curious.
It's true, static spawns would memblur once they returned to their spawn point, whereas roaming mobs had a low % chance to blur, that's why during pulls involving roaming mobs monks had to /q to be sure they dropped aggro. Oppositely, with pulls involving static mobs the monks could wait until the mobs returned to their spawn point to blur or they received the 2 min message "enemies have forgotten you".

There's plenty of proof out there if you look for it. Here's a post (#3 on it from 2006):

Anyhow, the sneak changes are fine as the way sneak memblurred on p99 was not classic. Pulling with the way the mechanics are now is still easily doable, it will just require multiple people involved, eg. monk 1 aggros group of mobs, monk 2 aggros target to pull it out of the pack, monk 3 tags dragon and brings to raid, monk 1/2 fd & /q.

FWIW, during Velious era on live Holgresh Elder Beads used to single pull the mob that killed your Eye of Zomm without having to split anything, but I doubt you'll find any notes about that anywhere [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
