Youre so right Cephian, alotta ppl dont understand this new addition to the game, agro litigation.
When you are attacked by a mob, you can now choose not to melee. Just say, "Talk to my lawyer Mr. Fog Golem, and I'll see you in court!" You are then free to pass, and the mob is served a legal summons.
With lawsuits being all the rage, and the typical solution to all RL problems, kudos to SoE for adding this realistic feature to our gaming experience.
I believe what you meant was agro mitigation :P
