Even if I have not attacked, and the pet has been taunting and dpsing 50%+ of the mobs hp, I can take aggro by walking up
Could be just Necromancer/skeleton pets perhaps? I was under the impression on P99 that monsters would always favor a player character in melee range over a pet as well so I was surprised to see it happen at all, but it happened numerous times and once I got used to it I was able to control it to come extent. Given I was on a Shaman, any proper melee class would presumably out-aggro the pet easily.
