Game Mechanics: NPC pathing after being disengaged

[titanshub]

Currently after the latest patch NPC's are spinning 360 degrees around at each point along their path back to their original engagement point. I can only confirm this is happening in Kael. Because they never present their back for more than a split second, it has become nearly impossible for a monk to split mobs apart using traditional methods.

They do however spin in unison like ballerinas and it does indeed look quite humorous.

It's something to do with Haynar's fixes most likely. In Chardok stuff was going back to their bind points but not actually memblurring if that helps.

Can confirm in DL: 2 mobs were spinning/moonwalking back to their spawn points after I FD'd them. When I stood after they had been reset on their spawn points for 20-30 seconds & WELL out of agro range (estimated 200-250 range), they ran back to me. They were still within my clip plane so I could see they were reset facing their normal direction.

With sneak, they seem to memblur, but sneak shouldn't be necessary.

Mobs warping / moonwalking / spinning while resetting and remembering FDer after returning to spawn point with sneak on and off. Very sad monk. How is this thread not blowing up?!
