He also throws on a DA to clear his aggro after the group CH lands. Currently DA doesn't drop you on aggro list like it should, it's only a temp drop that resets once DA ends which isn't classic.
I'm guessing our devs implemented this as 'when going through the hate list, ignore target if invulnerable' while Verant implemented this as 'when you cast DA, set your hate to 1'. The second version is faster computationally because you not only avoid the check, but you don't have to iterate through invulnerable players at the top of the hate list.

However it has important differences: with the second version players can DA tank over pets with current code. IIRC pets should be able to tank over players in Classic. Of course, pet aggro is so high here that a mage epic pet would basically tank everything . . .
