Seriously mobs did stop chasing you at a certain distance.


I know this because as a druid I frequently used snare+sow to just outrun mobs I didn't want to kill in LOIO or south Karana. After you made it a certain distance away mobs WOULD STOP CHASING YOU atleast until you got close enough again for them to begin persuit.

Again, I don't think chardok is big enough for this nerf to change anything about chardok AOE. If you want classic chardok AOE groups enchanters PBAOE stuns need to be adjusted. These stuns should be getting resisted a lot more than they currently do. Chardok aoe groups on live often required 5 to 6 enchanters just to kill half the mobs your average p99 ae group pulls.

lol tassle a idiot, mobs have never leashed in eq ever

[Tasslehofp99]

Mobs deffinetly stopped chasing you after a certain distance there isn't even a question of whether pr not that's true. I guess the main question is when was it implemented?


I deffinetly remembers using it to escape mobs on live in kunark to velious era.

I don't care enough to go looking for it but incase you missed it the OP provided a decent amount of evidence that it was in game at some point.

Was great for zones like west wastes when you got adds you couldn't handle.


I know for a fact that cobalt scar wasn't big enough to do it in as well. Spent a lot of time hunting there and even if you snared a mob at skyshrine end and ran with sow to SG you couldn't get enough distance for the mob to drop. Kind of a minor mechanic though, suprised the OP really thinks it's implementation would affect much.

The evidence I provided suggested there were different lazy aggro ranges depending on zone. One poster suggested that lazy aggro range was about visual range in LOIO. Another suggested it was about visual range in WW. Another stated it was "a couple of dozen feet out of casting range" in Chardok. Given that npc's didn't have max casting ranges

** NPC Spell Caster Changes **

- NPCs are now bound by spell casting distance rules, meaning that an
NPC's spell will no longer connect from halfway across the zone

then that would mean "a couple of dozen feet out of (PC) casting range".

So I do believe that it would make a significant difference to being able to train almost the whole of Chardok into your AoE if it was changed to be classic lazy aggro.

hey you know what else is not classic,

+1 mobs stopped chasing if you got a certain distance away

I don't know if this was implemented much later or what but it definitely happened. I have many memories of this in OT trying to pull back to ramp group and mobs would disengage.
