Deaggro

Egotistical mage (aren't they all?) intentionally frostbolts a spectator. While we watched, he ran to the doorway where they would emerge and died a quick death at their hands. Then they deaggro'd and went back upstairs.

I found with lvl 66-67 mobs, I could get within 8 yards (the range where shoot turns red for being too close) without aggro. If a mob did aggro (and was a melee mob, not tried casters yet), just hopping high enough that I'm out of melee range causes it to deaggro.

The druid works particularly well since you don't have to shift out of Flight Form to herb if you can low enough, so if I aggro something while picking the herb I just fly up until it deaggros, then fly back down when it walks off.

If things are going bad, you can even run away and wait for the monster(s) to de-aggro.

Now I'm left with a mob that they have tagged, but with enough DoTs on it that I've got aggro. They usually want ME to have to kill the thing so that they can come back and loot it. I don't care how much extra time it takes me; in this scenario I ALWAYS run until I deaggro the the^([sic]) thing.

It's probably best to hide a bit and de-aggro him unless you can shoot him through the bars. The gate here can be unlocked if you've invested into lockpicking as it is an [ Advanced ] lock. There are also some Bobby Pins near the gate you should pick up regardless.

Every time I engaged one warrior, I would end up having to run across the dungeon just to deaggro the minions I couldn’t/shouldn’t kill.

Leaving the boss chamber had always been enough to deaggro the boss before now. Panic surged within me as things turned grimmer by the second... “Damn it all!” Our attempts to shake the demon weren't working. As a result, Jin was still playing rearguard to protect us. If he were alone[…]
