The degredation of the first to engage rule is its own problem. For example:

Throwing a javelin at a mob when your force isnt even in zone but you see the other guild is about to pull. You think "ha, I'll throw my javelin as they are about to engage and if I get on the agro list first I can get a cheap victory even tho we got beat to the mob".

or
I'm a SK, so I'll have my pet on spawn and be FD. If some other guild appears to be about to engage I'll stand up real quick just to get a cheap FTE no matter how ready my guild. The action either serves its purpose for a cheap FTE, or it trains the mob over the force that is about to pull, or you try to kite it around while your force mobilizes....

I got a real cute eyeball trick where I make an eyeball, FD, send this eyeball past a bunch of mobs, stand up when its at Inny's feet because I see there is another guild trying to pull with a force of 40 in zone while I only have 7. I can pull this mob past their camp with a huge ass train, and even if someone picks the mob out of the train for FTE, its still mine because I am running to the zone in to train everyone there with all the mobs in the zone.

Exactly, it's a ridiculous rule. It should be "first to damage until it summons". Good luck kiting it then.
