Question on cheesing the AoE, how does that work? Mob's feet have to be underwater but you stay above it and you'll always get your casts off but the AoE never hits you?

Pretty much, yes, the feet and part of the body to a certain depth. I personally regard this tactic as an exploit and do not utilize it, but it's been on P99 since Velious opened and in spite of being reported it's been neither commented on nor fixed. As such it must be treated as having defacto staff approval despite my personal distaste for it. If not for the availability of this you would not see someone solo'ing Ionat so easily because it has a lengthy area effect silence ability.

For Shamwowi: You don't need to worry overmuch about Sontalak aggro at the present time. It's more a nuisance than a real problem now. In my recent trials with him, I noticed he also runs fairly slow now (unlike previously) so it's trivial to aggro him then outrun him into memblur range, from where he'll sit and not reset. Entariz is the more problematic one now since he very much does reset.
