I don't know what your definition of spamming is. Were you hitting provoke at turbo controller speed (5-10x per second) for the duration of a half hour~ fight?

Also, try anything besides provoke? My 90% success rate was with Dia. I've seen a provoke claimsteal Faf before but it's difficult to say if the other group messed up. And, as I have repeatedly said: I did extensive testing with (mostly) willing test partners and was able to reproduce a claimsteal 90% of the time. I am not somehow wrong that I got control of other people's mobs without them disengaging/running over water/being out of range/dying/dc'ing/switching mobs. This isn't a deaggro. It's a loss of claim. When the glitch happened, which is what it was, a glitch, the former party lost (most of) their hate and my 1 action made their mob begin attacking me, but they would still be affected by that mob's AoE.

It doesn't matter and I'm dropping it because I can't argue with "I couldn't do it so you're wrong", it's not an important issue to forcibly earn belief over.

So how about them current claim stealers? <resumetopic>
