    Title: [728] Aggro gain/loss seems wonky
    Reproduction Rate: Hard to say
    Blocker? No
    Details:
    Early in r50, Taunt and Escape working in tandem seemed to negotiate aggro fairly well. Current build it feels like its less effective somehow. Hard to quantify. Not using Troll belt/Ring of mouse combo
    Steps to Reproduce:
    Engage a mob, person A uses taunt ~3x, a few autos, person B steals aggro with spell dps
    A hits taunt 5x, B hits escape 5x, attach aggro meter (or whatever) to determine if its working as intended
    ("Feels" like in that situation the two aren't working together properly)

    Found the issue - per @Chris https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...t-chris-daily-blog.85583/page-224#post-941411 Taunt is a 360

    Test case 1: B pulled agro, stopped DPS, no escape - A was not facing the target, 9x (9th kind turned towards it) failed to pull the mob back
    Test case 2: B pulled agro, stopped DPS, no escape - A faced the mobs, and taunted, abour 3ish taunts and mobs turned around/came over to A

    Issue appears like its acting like a cone, not the 360 per Chris' post. This did not seem to be true before 728

    Test Case 3: B pulled Agro, stopped dps, spammed escape - A did not taunt, mob did not return to A

    so 2 bugs - taunt is now acting as a cone/directional, not 360, and escape is not applying properly
