I played from 1999 through 2005 with Dragons of Norrath being my last expansion where I engaged in raid content (I still love that Clawhammer!)

As a paladin... I personally loved push. I would use my knockback stuns to perfectly place my tanking objective. I could counteract casters. The trick was that you face the way you wanted the mob to go. If you needed the mob to come closer to you, you would face backwards, cast the knockback stun, and then turn around to resume fighting.

Any caster with a knockback spell could do this. But it seemed few knew about it. I think in that light it added interesting wrinkles to otherwise boring fights.

Of course with my guild, I always said if we were fighting in a zone the size of west karana, and that zone had a single tree in it, well we'd figure out a way to push our raid mob up that damned tree.
