Game Mechanics: Cazic Thule (2.0) - PoFear - Knockback AE not present

[Daldaen]

Reports are coming in that CT is only using the AE Snare, he is not currently using the AE Knockback. This makes the encounter far different/less tedious:

EQClerics 2001 August

Mobs with knockback (Vyemm, Yelinak, Cazic) pose the greatest challenge to a main tank tactic. We have special variations on main tanking that we use against knockback mobs.

Knockback confirmed part of encounter.
