Herc Question

Hopefully I'll have my herc today, so a quick question.

If a mob attacks a Herc buffed with reflect, will he keep the aggro while I heal? or does he need to attack the mob directly?

Also, name suggestion's for him, currently considering,

Fats
The Blob
Yokozuna
ButerBoy/ButerBal
Main = WitchBurner

    Reflect damage generates enough aggro to allow you to heal the Herc without stealing aggro.

    Or...

    Belwas


    I'd suggest Strong Belwas, but it's probably too long.


    A cookie if you know the reference. b:pleased

    I always allow the mob to take 2 hits on herc b4 healing. If the mob should miss then naturally there is no reflect. The only time I have noticed herc looses agro is if I am "zhening" (attacking many mobs at once) and send pet after a mob far away. The other mobs attacking will follow for some distance, but if too far then they will loose interest in herc and come for me. Also must realize that reflect only works against melee attacks. If mobs attack herc with range or magic there will be no reflect and herc must hit them individually.

    Thanks for the input guys, I'll try to remember to Alt+1 magic mobs before healing. Hoping to get my herc within the hour. :)
