    Title: Jotungrund - Wolves and Bears attack from very far away
    Reproduction Rate: all 3 times I've been here since yesterday's patch, though not all fights
    Blocker? no but frustrating
    Details: Yesterday there was a patch to reduce mobs from bouncing on uneven land. Less of the mobs bounce (though some still do) but this patch also seemed to make pathing (pet and mob) worse. (and pet pathing already had problems in this scene as mentioned in the QA feedback forums). While fighting the bears and wolves now they attack me and hit me even when they are no where near me. Often if there are multiple wolves around I cant even tell which one is aggro'd to me. The mobs seem to run back and forth a lot even during a fight, and will stop seemingly randomly to take a swipe. And my pet half the time will run away from the mob to attack it. It feels like I am in a group with a lot of lag where I am not instance master, but each of the 3 times I've been here I have been in private only me and my pet.
    Steps to Reproduce: Go to Jotungrund, summon a pet and start fighting wolves and bears in the more difficult area (mostly past the giant bones and near the troll plateaus)

    I wanted to add that this behavior seems to be seen more often on slight slopes like the bouncing was. I sometimes try to move the mobs over a bit out of the ravine/lowest area that the wolf packs most often run in to try to keep from getting aggro from each new pack that runs by. This generally fails and sometimes I see the attack from afar behavior in their normal paths too, but if you are having trouble reproducing the bug try to move the mobs to a bit higher elevation.

    Wanted to add, this also applies to barbarians. The melee ones will swing their axes from like, 50-100 feet away and hit you.
