Thanks for the prompt reply, Talies. This started with me stealing from a
third player. The Wizard jumped in and , after making her chase me to
Kithicore, I more or less conceded defeat. But the wizard didn't want to
end the game yet so she accused me of stealing from her too. It's all in
the name of fun and she's been VERY sportsmanlike about bending the rules
of EQ to allow a few of my moves.

I think I'll shoot the arrow at the skeleton just before Immobilize wears
off. Then run for the zone. If she allows the move, the skeleton will
eventually fall back and forget about me, but it will be in her path as she
chases me. I'm counting on the stuns, cause she's got Jboots and I don't.

Probably not, since in order for a monster to switch targets, it needs to
have distance issues. If you can't move farther from the wizard, that
skelly will just ignore her and move on to you.

FYI 14 vs 45 - just give her the darn thing back.
