Did a very quick search for 'aggro and bind sight' found this

Quote:
Gimpy bards also use bind-sight. Open the door and get a target on a mob that you can see, then back up and bind sight on that mob, you can then bind-sight hop round the room, lulling all and sundry. Er... Actually uber mobs use bind-sight too from time to time. Case in point, the Feratha pull.
For the uninitiated, Feratha is a big badass puppy in RSS who lives in his big hutch with about 8 guard puppies. The guard puppies are lulleable so if you can lull round his room quick enuff you have a single pull. Howevah!!! The room is too big to lull them all from outside, and you cannot go into the doorway as Feratha has a substantial aggro range and will bite your head off. Sooooo how.... First run downstairs and, from a safe range, get a target on any mob in the room. Then go back upstairs and into the room directly above Feratha. You can now bind sight on the mob and hop around the room lulling with impunity!

The mob he is referring to is in Omens but it is unlikely they would radically change how Bind Sight works from Velious > Omens the spell was in at classic release. This is one example though of how the spell functions, bind sight into a place to get targets for lulls at a safe distance where otherwise wouldnt be possible. Surely if Bind Sight had the ability to cause aggro on resists this Bard would have warned you about it.
