Can't wait to click around and see this in action.

Would be even more excited to see a mob rampage demo.

Sit aggro is definitely classic, it has been almost non-existent on this server for a long time. Anyone else remember actually having to wait for the tank to get aggro before you could cast and sit down safely...shit I remember just attempting to slow 1 time and getting a resist would make it impossible for me to sit down through entire fights.

I haven't seen how it has been implemented now as I haven't played since the patch so I'm not sure how close it is to live.

i remember casters not being able to sit the whole fight due to slow resist and the like and/or bad tank threat, but i dont recall so much ping pong agro on all people sitting when the mob is incoming. maybe if the puller just used prox agro to pull, but usually at least some dmg or spell would "claim" the mob to that player and it would not do like it is doing right now. too much ping pong.

The ping ponging is people learning not to sit on pulls.

My necro and a mage (both of us around level 20) ping ponged Slate back and forth near the tunnel for close to an hour once. Now that they made this change, will this work with any mob and it won't aggro pets?

Last night on my monk in lguk I pulled a mob and began killing it. Got it to around 40%.

Enchanter walks up next to me, not in group. He sits to med a spell (I think a haste!) , mob peels off of me and starts wailing on him.

Totally classic

Same time in lguk last night, sit agro worked pretty much as it did on live even before the hot patch. I don't know why the experiences would be so disparate.

The mechanic itself is classic. The implementation here needs some tweaking.

Agreed. Sitting was dangerous near any mob, even greens. But I do not remember Ping-Pong being a tactic.
