Interesting to read all the comments. I have to admit to never seeing
this before, even when I used charm all night one time in Solusek. I
just imagined it was another little unusual thing with Dreadlands/
Kunark, along with the random faction changes and the way mobs seem to
ignore the puller and everyone else and focus on one party member for
no obvious reason.

However, I'll try out a number of commands and be more wary in future.
Even if we can just take 1 mob out of the fight it's a help, never
mind if it isn't attacking and killing the others alongside us! :-)

Thanks again all!
