Dealing with "chained" monster linking

[Bahn]

I believe some monsters do have a flee mechanic. Try other monster families or recruit a third player.

The problem here is that only the second mob (the linked one) flees. I don't remember mobs doing this in 1.18, so I'm wondering if they added some sort of mechanic to the mob AI to auto-flee if it's outnumbered and about to die.
