Looks like the issue is either the aggro distance or assist distance of the other shrooms.

Sneak pull mechanics are classic.

Exploiting pathing, will get u banned.

Making mobs move back and forth pathing, is exploiting.

Safe spots around king, not so classic.

No pathing exploit was going on, the shrooms never aggroed us, we pulled the ph/king into water when they all had their backs turned and sneak was on. I always remember water being an invisible barrier of LoS for any mob, but I could be mistaken. Will keep checking back for update.

Does this mean water surface should not block Los?
That has pvp implications since people use water to Los spells.

Edit: apparently I didn't refresh page and missed a lot of discussion on this. Question is still relevant though if you think this should not be the case. Caster pvp around water is pretty dumb.

The shrooms should aggro even if ur under water. Might be wrong type of los checks going on. I will investigate.

Actually lev over water might be confusing pathing system. I can fix that too.

We could show you sometime if you want, the king hops off the little structure and walks around the right side till he's at water then he dives in. There isn't any wonky pathing like there is down at juggs or at that little safe spot near king.

I am curious how the fix would work. I always felt like mob should take shortest path to you even it it involved going through water. If mob is set on running around ever it seems like this can always be abused by finding the spot that he start to go that way. Right now if you are near water edge mobs will path toward water than you can start backing up and they will go through water.

Best I can do is look at how aggro is in water in seb on live. Might take my rogue down there and check the mechanics are as similar as they can be.

Sneak pulling as always, is a cool rogue utility. I worked on it quite a bit to try and make it work right.
