Sneak pull should only work when the range attack "MISS". after patch even if range attack hit the mob, it no longer break sneak. Means sneak pull is easy mode now.

Almost. Sneak is still working on the back 180 degrees which is coded wrong. Have that fix working too. Just not patched.

Working as intended.

Definitely was posted in September 2000. But there is information left out:

Let's also reexamine that quote:

With the changes to Sneak (no longer dropping when you use a thrown weapon ) another use has come up! In order for this to work, you must be using a ranged weapon with a ranger greater then the static aggro of the mob ( ie method # 3 listed above): engage sneak, throw, insta split. Personally I'm using summoned suriken for this, and I haven't had to use FD on a split since I got back into EQ. This includes splitting spawns where the mobs are literally on top of each other, although some times I have hit the mob i didn't have targeted, I have never aggro'ed the other.

May 2002 Patch Notes

Sneak only breaks when a character is hit, not when he hits someone.

Luclin release date December 2001

Discuss.
