    You can already do this in this game -- Also, mobs on aggressive tethers poses much less of a threat to you than you losing sneak and/or invis at the wrong time because the game doesn't force them to completely forget you or anyone else ever existed lol.

    You can invis in this game? -- Unless you were very bad at XI, you didn't lose sneak and invis. You could literally run any zone with more ease.

    You could stand in front of a sneak mob and recast it on yourself without it caring.

    Yep for DoL -- You could trick out some mobs like Yagudos when trying to get the crest or a coffer for example that's usually good timing, here it doesn't matter as much since monsters that may aggro you will be yanked back almost seconds afterwards. The one thing that was annoying though was when everything could range attack you. Everything, it didn't matter if it was a mamrot or a crab, it had a range attack.

    People play DoL? -- The thing is, high level mobs in this game don't need a long tether because they one shot you. You could take hits in XI and normally lose aggro or zone without much of a problem.

    From what my good sir?

    Even in XI if you mess with something too high level it will asuredly one shot you. Of course if you were 75 not many things were much higher than you. Currently we have monsters that are 50 levels higher than we are.

    Mobs should have longer tethers and better Agro AI mechanics come back (They were actually easier to avoid if you weren't stupid) but not be such high levels until we have content that has a need for a monster being such a high level. Level 70 should be as high as monsters in the wild should go, enough to be a good deterent in a way of "You should not be here" yet being reasonable enough that it's not utterly mind blowing.

    But really if your getting agro from anything that isn't True sound, then you just aren't being carefull I'd enjoy if Goblins came in agressive and passive types I see no reason why they should ALL be agressive or un-agressive. Hell even have some Amaljaa and Ixalii and Kabolds that are living in peacefull settlements away from the established tribes perhaps?

    You know some guys just looking for food in the wilderness and you happen to come in and ruin their days...(And their childrens...think of the children)

    Doesn't matter waste of a thread. They'll do what they want. Yes, this was a waste of a post too.
