Use either Improved Surveil (56), or Surveillance (70) to pull and say good-bye to that pesky social aggro. <div></div>

<div></div>actually, improved surveil wont work... or might, but it can also fail (at least has for me <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />)body pull is not necessarily = beat to death1) use thorny trap2) use cheap shot effectively (that is dont use DoT poisons when doing ^ or greater mobs)3) use the AA stun : point blank shot (for me, this helped a lot in the body pulling situations)4) use your 4s root (yes, this is awesome)5) when the mob engages you, cast snare after few steps, this will allow you to make atleast 1 bow shot before its in melee (after gaining some distance of course)6) IF you have room, after snare, consider leg shot and the kite some, maybe with autoattack?*edit*7) of forgot this, use the stance dance, that is, switch to defensive stance when meleeing (and if you sem to take a lot of hits)Basically, cheap shot, point blank shot and the 4s root thingy CA can be rotated in a way, so that you wont have to just whack the mobs, learn to use them and its not a bangfest anymore <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />Of course the social NON aggro mobs are very nice too, wont you agree? (and for those, the body pulling wont work either, lol) <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><div></div>++Xan<p>Message Edited by xandez on <span class=date_text>10-26-2006</span> <span class=time_text>12:11 PM</span>
Yes, now I never had the chance to use Surveiltype CAs for pulls, but I do know that if they ever worked as non social pulls they no longer do..<div></div>

Actually that's incorrect (at least in my experience) I've been using (and still use) Surveillance to pull mobs without getting aggro. RabbitFly which mobs are you trying to pull? <div></div>

<div></div>that is correct actuallyimproved surveil doesnt work, but surveillance does (its the only CA in that line which can be used to pull social aggro)++Xan<div></div><p>Message Edited by xandez on <span class=date_text>10-27-2006</span> <span class=time_text>10:38 AM</span>
