Hi all.

I want to clear some doubts that go on my head.

They are related to skills that do trigger or not a mob to flee.

These are the skills I want to know if they cause fleeing:

Death Blossom

mark of pain (with only 1 ataker..)

Splinter Weapon



I think many have already understood my ideia, thugh, I will only say that if things go as I think, we will have a fast, eficient farm... at least wehn chibilains is far from u

Hope this was of any use.

Mark of pain does make mobs scatter, wanted to use it with somewhat of troll farm build with warrior but they did scatter too much... anyway, splinter weapon might work

Mark of Pain and Splinter Weapon do look a lot like each other, propably the mobs will think that aswell...

If they are ranged, any aoe skills (ie. direct AoE damage, not multiple attacks such as cyclone axe or hundred blades) will cause scatter if triggered more than twice in 3 seconds. They will all scatter, and will return after a short amount of time.

If they are ranged, and more than 3 are below about 60% health, the ones that are below 60% health will scatter. Scattering in this will always leave 3 attacking you, no matter how many are damage or in the original group, so melee groups of less than three will not scatter. Enemies that scatter in this will wait until they regenerate to full health before returning.

Hope that clears it up.

my idea was something like this:

A/rt

Shadow form
Way of the Lotus
splinter weapon
jagged strike
wild blow (or other fast recharging off-hand)
death blossom
critical defences
heart of shadow

Mo/R

Spell breaker (for the time shadow form is off (5~7secs))
QZ
mending
....
