deaggro

To become no longer aggressive towards the player's character.

Egotistical mage (aren't they all?) intentionally frostbolts a spectator. While we watched, he ran to the doorway where they would emerge and died a quick death at their hands. Then they deaggro'd and went back upstairs.

I found with lvl 66-67 mobs, I could get within 8 yards (the range where shoot turns red for being too close) without aggro. If a mob did aggro (and was a melee mob, not tried casters yet), just hopping high enough that I'm out of melee range causes it to deaggro.

To cause (a non-player character) to become no longer aggressive towards the player's character.

Now I'm left with a mob that they have tagged, but with enough DoTs on it that I've got aggro. They usually want ME to have to kill the thing so that they can come back and loot it. I don't care how much extra time it takes me; in this scenario I ALWAYS run until I deaggro the the^([sic]) thing.

It's probably best to hide a bit and de-aggro him unless you can shoot him through the bars. The gate here can be unlocked if you've invested into lockpicking as it is an [ Advanced ] lock. There are also some Bobby Pins near the gate you should pick up regardless.
