Resetting Agro With Call of the Hero

Although the spell Call of the Hero (CotH or CoH) is normally used on raids to bring a character to the raid, the spell can also used to clear agro (eg. from kiters).

Because of the spell's long casting time, this tactic is most useful for retrieving a character who took mobs away from the raid, as the character can typically kite for CotH's ten seconds casting time.

For more precisely timed agro resetting see the Resetting Agro With Translocate tactic.

Tactic

The tactic works as follows:

1. First, the Magician and the character who will need to clear agro must be in the same group
2. Next, the character agros one or more mobs (eg. to lure them away from the raid)
3. When ready, the Magician casts Call of the Hero on the other character
4. When the mage summons them, all agro is cleared

Magician Self-Agro Clearing

This tactic can also be used by the Magician themselves, as even a self-cast CotH will clear agro. However, because of the long cast time, there are only a limited number of cases where this actually useful.

Related Tactics

The basic idea of this tactic is similar to Resetting Agro With Translocate, although that tactic lets the player who is clearing agro control when the agro is reset.
