This wouldn't be an issue if Kunark mobs stopped chasing after a certain distance, which is classic, and I've brought up numerous times since it opened.

Yep.

I remember low-hp insta gibs during raids.

I remember it being very difficult, but you could eventually peel from low hp, assuming the person lived long enough.

where do you draw the line? exactly how many mobs can you kill per hour to be playing “fairly?”

"Fair" is anything that benefits me. "Unfair" or "should be illegal" is anything that benefits someone else without benefitting me.

@Billy: if the person was low HP before the tank or others on the hate list had enough threat, it would happen.

I spoke with someone the other day about low level aggro working like this as well. Very similar to low HP or sitting aggro.

Peep out some of that /sit logic for threat and see if it can be applied to low HP stuff. Kanras is our man, if he can't do it; Nilbog can.

Unfortunately the donate button has no bloomin onion option but I would gladly order one for the victorious dev.

I got nothing on Kunark mobs not chasing after a certain distance in the ole memory bank. Mostly I'd say because I was 50 before Kunark and leveled on the High keep upstairs and Seb/HS almost entirely.

100% on getting rezzed in Hate/Fear on a fresh pull only to be instakilled upon accepting.

Mobs adding players to their hate list by proxy would be awesome if implemented here too [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

I kited in Skyfire and BW and they'd stop chasing if you get more than ~300 away, but resume chasing if you got within ~150 of them. Guarantee it's still like that on EQMac to this day.

Quick Robin, to the bugs section. Post a clip for my viewings too [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

Anther shout out to Pasi for proving (again!) that I'm not crazy re: epic turn ins.

its Easy to do this pre kunark too. Dont need OT, and shit. PRe kunark you can do BB guards, Freeport guards. ogre guards. Its all about killing guards 33+.

[Vamael]

a far as AE groups going, enchanter / wizard combos was extremely popular on TZ, shakerpaging was the such an amazing thing later on too.

Derail @Vamael:

The guards, and particularly those who were in town, had very high resists compared to other NPCs.

Guard Reskin/Tolus in EC weren't too bad, but..

Sergeant Slate and every other guard that conned blue in East Freeport/Kelethin/Halas/Grobb (you name it) were an absolute bitch to keep rooted or damage with spells... many if they conned green too. They also had a rather enormous assist radius.

I really need to follow through on posting the parses of killing a few. Fail @ me.
