Unstable Hate?[]

I recently killed this NM with a RDM/NIN (main tank), RDM/WHM (me) and SCH/RDM (who deleveled to 74 shortly before fighting this NM, lolol). Despite the RDM/NIN using various hate gaining spells (i.e. blind, bind, sleep, and so on) consistently, hate tended to shift quite a lot. At first it would seemingly attack me or the SCH randomly, but as the fight progressed, I didn't do as much and the SCH nuked a decent amount, so it rarely went after me. However, hate was very unstable at times. For example, our SCH ran out of MP and rested to full MP peacefully while the RDM/NIN continued his barrage of spells, and as soon as the SCH got up and cast blink or stoneskin, the NM switched targets to him. Also, as he got low on HP, he randomly ran to me and whacked me a little, despite standing around doing almost nothing for a good while. Similar behavior wasn't experienced with Ga'Lhu Nevermolt and hate was a lot more predictable with him.

Is it just me?


-I killed this NM today, Duo with a RDM, But i noticed something After sac'in it to the Gate... (Friend Sac'ed it), Once he died, waited for stuff to Depop and then i flashed the NM, it began casting a Teir III nuke on me, I ran out of Range, and it immediately deaggroed... so i ran back and flashed again, this time it followed me no problem, Fight went ok, but it was strange. During Chainspell it did Cast spells on the RDM (Who didn't have hate) but it was just Debuffs, which is normal for mobs to cast on random party members -Asura.Karbuncle


-After fighting this NM a few times it seems he likes to favor using spells & weaponskill Ore Lob on the person who is second on the hate list. If you can stay at max casting range it seems he leaves you alone. I have also seen the flash & deagro happen twice, for no reason what-so-ever. A Sam in our group accidently used tachi:gekko just as he used his 2hr, he did spam weaponskills one after the other, but once he was unsilenced he went back to using spells. Asura.Clairxi
