SK Feign Death is confusing me

[Barnabas]

Hey everyone,

I'm a little confused how FD for SK's work. There are many times I will FD and when I stand up, the mobs will return to kill me. I understand that dots will trigger agro, but it seems to do it even when I don't DoT.

Do the mobs need to reset to their spawn point? I pulled the huge named Griffin in Rathe Mountains on top of the hill and FD'd when I realized I had no chance, wait for him to go back to this spawn spot, and I got up with no issues.

Can someone tell me exactly what I need to do to be able to get up out of FD and not have the mob return to me? I'm obviously doing something wrong.

Thanks,
