Honestly, the only mobs you see socked are VS and Trak. The majority of those instances are when the mob is late in window. However, sometimes one guild was bring a group down to the VS pit to xp, and the next thing you know you have a cold war style escalation with both sides sitting on the spawn all because someone tipped their hand slightly. That's where the early window socks come from. And those usually disband in relatively short order once people think rationally and do some math.
