Monks would pull, run out of the original aggro range, feign,
and wait for all but one of the mobs to walk back to their
"rest" position. Usually the one they attacked would be the
last to leave, and when it was alone they could pull it to the
group. If it wasn't the last one to leave, they could repeat
the process as soon as it started leaving, and thus whittle
the pull down until they had only the mob they wanted. Took
more time, but was safer since they could get rid of mobs
*after* they'd gone aggro.
