Fixed Internally Agro not clearing properly on death when respawning in same zone

    steps to reproduce

    Nektulous forest in particular
    Cast disease cloud on basilisk or black mamba
    die
    respawn in same zone
    Enter mob proximity before DoT wears off

    Also, why are there basilisks that are impossible to kill for a solo lvl 7-9 person in a newby zone? these take up way to many mob slots in this zone.

    Expected, dots will re-associate with a player after death, so you need to wait for the dot to wear off or be prepared for a fight.

    Agree on the basilisks, worthless mobs for a newb zone.

    That's the bad thing about being bound in the same zone when you die. The mob never saw that you zoned after death therefore each dot tick is still building aggro.

  5. Fenthen Well, that's that...

    This really isn't a bug. You die, your aggro is clear. Whether you zone or not, the debuffs you put on that mob are still there. If one of those is a DoT, AoT, etc then it will continue ticking away.
    When you respawn without zoning, your name is still associated with that debuff. If you zone then your name is stripped.
