Definition
A term referring to the strategy a Tanker used to "herd" one or more mobs to a specific location making it easy for team mates to attack them while he/she holds aggro.
Mechanics
- The Tank picks a spot to herd the mob to and informs all team mates so they know to stay back out of line of site and wait for the mob to assemble
- The Tank then runs into the area where the mob is located using taunt or defense powers that naturally taunt to aggro the mob/mobs to chase him/her
- Tank returns to the spot selected which is normally around a corner so they are out of line of site so the mob(s) have to follow.
- Once the mob surrounds the Tank he/she continues to taunt while team mates attack. Defenders should use healing and buff powers to help the Tank survive until all enemies are defeated
