Ahhh I see. The word loss was confusing to me. I am most definitely aware of aggro adjustments based on distance as mentioned above (roots as well.. we all know about proximity root tanking). Cool - thanks for doing all the thinking for me =).

It means, if you run away far enough, it will absolve all hate on that person and he'll lose aggro/hate causing the mob to return to his original location. | |||

losing aggro from simply moving a certain distance isn't classic....is it?

I remember this being a new feature that started with the release of Kunark. My first trip through the Dreadlands is where I first encountered this phenomenon, and this was a big part of why Karnors was plagued with trains. You would outrun your pull, it would return to it's spot but retain aggro on you and spread said aggro, you went back to retrieve pull and brought the zone. [Note: The other Karnors-train causing issue was feigning - feigning didn't fully clear aggro so if you didn't zone to clear aggro after feigning off a pull then the same effect occcurred.]
But mobs definitely did NOT stop chasing you based on distance until Kunark opened. | ||

This seems more like WoW than EQ.
I played kunark-POP. Other than someone tagging a train I never remember losing mobs even ridiculously outrunning them. Quad kiting wyverns in Velious I would snare, sow outrun them get to the others wait and med while I gathered my quad. | ||

Also, I think if the KoS mobs are blue con to you then chain social agro might somehow negate this... Anyone know if that's the case? Quote:
EDIT: After looking at the map, http://www.eqmacwiki.com/eqatlas/karnors1map.html if distance is = to /loc then I guess it might be possible if the mob was extremely snared. Basically the mob would still have to be in the middle of the zone by the time you made it to the DL zoneline. And final question which I have asked before. What's the best way to judge this distance? how much does 500 distance equate to in terms of /loc? Is it a 1 to 1 ratio? | ||||
