    As for the mobs themselves.They have different agro ways.Some are sound so they agro you if running.You can get by them simply by walking instead of running.Some also only agro you if your hp drops to a certain threshold.As for the rest of them its easy enough to manouvre around their field of visions once you get used to it.
    But if you didnt learn that in anemos you are likely not to learn it in the other Eureka zones.
    Also as for agroing mobs during fates.Well this is no diferent than the rules you should have learned by now in dungeons on your way to lvl 70 so if you arent watching for mobs during fates you really have no excuse.
    I sat there calling for a rez for over ten minutes while a healer was grinding mobs a few metres away from my corpse. My next death also went without receiving a rez

    This is the thing with Pagos, the original chain mentality turned everyone from being nice and willing to help in Anemos to self-absorbed and unwilling to lift a finger to help anyone in Pagos. That's another aspect that really made me despise Pagos. Everyone was having fun in shout chat and going out of their way just to help people in Anemos but here comes Pagos and now you had to chain mobs to accomplish anything and if you stopped hitting that mob for 5 seconds, goodbye to that chain. That made it so people couldn't care less if someone died under their feet and of course the hostile mentality gave more room to trolls to ruin the experience even further by pulling mobs to NMs on purpose etc. that happened in Anemos too but it was way worse in Pagos from what I heard.

    Also the way mobs aggro is really not the first thing on your mind when you're trying to rush to the other side of the map to get something out of that NM and people don't care about waiting since there's people already waiting when the NM pops. I mean you can just try to sneak by mobs but that NM is going to be long dead by the time you get there so what are you supposed to do.

    SE now probably needs to "reward" people for rezzing too

    Not everyone looks at the shout-chat. Did you /tell him directly?
    Corpses are really hard to see sometimes.

    I would recommend doing challange log in Anemos till lvl 23 and then go to Pagos and get a party immediatly (ppl in a party usually go to rezz you if you die). Try carefully to get the middle and west Aetherite and join the Train. You will be 25 in no time an can get the east aetherite, after that its easy following the train.

    I did, actually, and his reply was essentially "sorry, can't!" I know it's just a single anecdote, but it definitely didn't colour my Pagos impressions favourably when taken with all the other things I didn't like about the experience. Thanks for the tips, though!

    If they are far enough away to be untargetable how are you supposed to /tell them anyway right? I think they should just remove the exp loss thing in the older areas. Not that it was ever a good idea to begin with.

    This happens more often than people is willing to admit.

    You don't need an orange parse to play properly, just a brain ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Exactly, and it's also needed if you plan to play Eureka properly.

    Yeap be sure to take advice from those who haven't even completed one weapon about how to play Eureka. Doesn't matter if you're got multiple relics already and cleared BA. Nope!
