Game Mechanics: Feb 13 2017 patch and prenerf circlet of shadow

[Danth]

Circlet of Shadow (prenerf) allows a Shadow Knight or Necromancer to to use Gather Shadows immediately upon standing from a feign. The utility of this item is well-known.

Current behavior, post-patch, is that monsters which have not reset to bind point immediately attack upon standing, whether the player is invisible or not. This renders the circlet almost useless. Monsters only lose interest when the feign happens to blur them.

Expected behavior is that monsters should not re-engage until the player drops invisibility. They should not entirely memblur until they reset to bind (unless the feign blurred them), however a player should be able to use the circlet to stand and gain distance.
