Looking for clarification on classic Feign Death functionality.

[Graventhel]

I didn't main my SK until the end of Velious and didn't start FD pulling for my guild until well into Luclin. As I recall, whenever a mob reset after a successful FD my hate was cleared and I was free to stand up un-aggro'd.

While cruising the forums here some one had mentioned staying on the hate list and randomingly aggroing after a successful FD, with one of two other people agreeing. Is this an old functionality, my memory being fuzzy, or straight false?

When a mob fully resets (Goes back to his spawn point and is stationary), the hate list clears. If you stand up before they fully reset, there is a chance you memblur the mob, but its not guaranteed.

I thought even when they fully reset, they have a chance to remember you.

Search the forums for monk sneak nerf. That's when FD was made classic and not memblur.

They do, I think in the formula on p99. There is a chance for them to "Remember" you and it sets a short random timer. They'll keep coming back to you until that timer ends.

*I think* this changes at a certain level too. I think prior to level 30 or so, you always mem blur mobs as soon as you FD and even before they reset. After level 30 or so, you have to wait for them to reset to clear aggro. There is a small chance that you can clear aggro before they reset after level 30 or so. I don't think mobs ever remember you after having reset, but I'm not 100% sure.

This is not the case.

[metatron]

in the beginning fd cleared all agro unless getting caught by a spell in progress against you. not sure when but it did change to remember you until mobs reset or % chance.

[Polixa]

Mobs below 35 were memblurred by a FD.

After 35 they might remember you until they 'reset.'

That's what I remember reading years ago.

This is not the case.

This is the case. It's level 35. Was very memorable to go through this level range on my SK a few weeks back, when the mobs all the sudden started running back immediately when I stood up. I had been FD splitting a lot and it suddenly became much more difficult when I started pulling mobs 35+. They will always forget you when they return to their spawn point and "reset"

Is this the case on P99? That's what I was refering to not live.
:confused:

[metatron]

i used to fd split mobs on a necro in guk lord/king. getting up did not re agro them until some time later unless we got hit by a spell while fd. hope someone can find the patch

This is the case on blue server. 99.9% sure, because I just recently experienced it.

I do not know if this is the case on green, or if it's classic, etc. I assume that mechanics like these will be the same on green as they were on blue unless I can find p99 bug/patch notes to the contrary.

[Graventhel]

Thanks for the replies, all. There's more uncertainty than I expected, but at least most seem to side with my experiences post Luclin. I suppose I will find out for certain first hand how Green handles it in a few weeks/months.

[FishBait01]

You have to wait a certain amount of time, it isn't long.

I was never a feign death character.

But I recall guys trying to get mobs to reset and then stand up before 1 or so mobs reset, spacing them out, and then resetting others till it was a clean single. And so on.

This is exactly as I recall.
