Maybe this is a dumb question... how do you guys deal with runners? All my mobs scatter at low hp and its a huge PITA to finish them all off.
Generally if you have at least one mob of each kind then their social aggro will prevent them from fleeing as long as they have at least one buddy alive. So if you have a lion, a bear, and a wolf, try to have at least one more lion, bear, and wolf. But I haven't found runners to be that big a deal. On a typical large-ish kite at around level 20 I'd have maybe 5 or so runners to deal with at the end of the coat. Just pick them off and train up your melee skill a bit. The worst thing is when you have a low-level monster that flees early and then regens enough to come back and bash you before you finish your kite. Gotta be careful about that happening - try and finish the kite quickly if you notice it, or try and move the kite onto the fleeing monster.
