#REDIRECT [[Partying#Additional Roles]]
A [[party]] member responsible for selecting and bringing monsters to [[camp]] for the [[party]] to fight. Use of the ability [[Widescan]] helps immensely with this task.
 
 
Typical pullers include:
 
# [[Ranger]]
 
# [[Thief]]
 
 
In reality, though, anyone with a ranged [[weapon]] makes a good puller. Pulling using [[provoke]] is not recommended because it builds up too much [[hate]] in the puller and hurts the ability of the [[tank]] to maintain [[hate]]. Additionally, pulling with spells is also not recommended because the mage should be [[rest]]ing while the puller is hunting for monsters.
 
 
Alternatively, though, a [[Summoner]] or [[Beastmaster]] can make a decent puller in highly populated zones. His [[Avatar]] or [[pet]] will not link all the monsters when bunched tightly together. Although the monster may link directly on the [[Avatar]]/[[pet]], if the [[Summoner]] /[[Beastmaster]] [[release]]s the [[Avatar]]/[[pet]] and returns to [[camp]], only the monster that was attacked by the [[Avatar]]/[[pet]] will be pulled back to camp, and the other links will go back to their milling around.
