Can't change class during combat

I was doing a fieldcraft leve in Humblehearth, And I incurred enmity from an enemy I thought I could slip past. I was in one of those little "alleys" so I could not run away without running through other enemies I managed to avoid. So I decided I would switch to PUG to dispatch the enemy. Then I got the error message "Cannot change classes while in combat." I was furious. So as a gatherer, when we incur enmity, the only recourse is to run? That is such crap.

Well yes, because we have Stealth now and we're supposed to Stealth across the Field doing gathering/harvest.
