| == Tanking/Aggro behavior ==
| |
| {{Cquote|Pet tanking behavior 1: Pets can tank. Over 90% of NPCs use this behavior since the December 9th 2015 update.
| |
|
| |
| Pet tanking behavior 2: Pets can tank only if no player characters are within melee range. This is the way everything used to work prior to the December 9th 2015 update.
| |
|
| |
| Pet tanking behavior 3: Pets cannot tank. A portion of the hate that pets generate is attributed to the pet's owner. NPCs that have the MotM buff use this behavior.

|
| |
|
| |
| On progression servers:
| |
|
| |
| The Cazic-Thule 2.0 bosses were using behavior 3. After the August 2017 update they will continue to use behavior 3.
| |
|
| |
| The Gates of Discord bosses were using behavior 1. After the August 2017 update they will use behavior 2.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| On non-progression servers:
| |
|

| |
|
| |
| - Adjusted how NPCs choose a melee target in relation to player pets:
| |
|
| |
| - - It is now possible for a pet to be the target of an NPC's melee attacks if it has the highest aggro with other players in range.
| |
|
| |
| - - This behavior can be adjusted on a per NPC basis and will currently be disabled for all current and previous raid difficulty NPCs.
| |
|
| |
| - - It is additionally possible for some NPCs to ignore the hatred generated by pets and instead attribute a portion of that hatred toward the owner. This behavior will be in play on raid targets on progression servers.||| [https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/test-update-08-08-2017-patch-notes-and-discussion.243118/#post-3574621 Prathun, EQ Developer, August 14, 2017]}}
