I have been using provoke to pull the Succubi and the Dallahan (sp?) in AK. Has anyone else been doing this?

I was doing an AK run last night where we had two dragoons. When we got to the first Succubus, the healer pulled it, but he messed up somehow and pulled the two Soul Collector guys as well. After I got them all off him and we killed them, he said "Sorry, I usually can pull without getting all of them." I said, "NP, but I can pull the Succubi with provoke. It makes things a bit easier." He didn't respond because I do not think he knew what I meant at first. When we got to the next pack of mobs with a Succubus, I provoked her and as she was coming towards us I used shield lob and tanked her. Then, the healer said, "Ohhhh, I am going to have to tell John he is retarded." Presumably John is a friend of the healer's that plays a tank.

Now, it usually isn't that hard to pull the mob away from a Bard or something that pulls her, but I figure the tank might as well pull the Succubi so you don't have to deal with pulling her off someone else at all. What do you guys think?
