NPC Spawn Issue: Aqua Goblins in Dagnor's Cauldron excessively aggressive

[Boomlaor]

I played for many levels in Unrest back on live. One of my favorite things about it as a melee was that a merchant was just a short run out into DC to sell the heavy bronze armor/weapons when I got encumbered. I just did that. I recall the aqua goblins roaming the outer rim of the zone, and swimming in the water, and even pathing around the base of the island. I don't remember them ever going up to the top of the island, where the merchant is, unless pulled there.

I just swam out to the island, and went to sell to Conium Darkblade, as I have many times. I was careful to go between a wide gap in roamers on the way up the island. Either the pathing of these goblins is messed, up, or their agro range is too large. Half way through selling my gear to the merchant, I got swarmed by 4 goblins.

Edit: I do seem to remember shoal serpents and skeletons roaming up to the top of the island. Maybe the goblins are spawning in slots which should be one of those mobs?
