Q: Me and a guildie were having a discussion on whether or not distance from a mob affects the aggro generated by spellcasting. For example, if I DD the wee wolf from 10 units away, do I generate more aggro than if I DD it from 1500 units away?
A: According to Mighty Server Man, "It's not so much that you generate less aggro when you're further away you still generate just as much. Monsters will generally put a higher priority on closer targets though when they're looking for a melee attack, so standing further back means you can do more to them before they'll go after you. Once they've acquired you as a target, however, you've generated a lot more than your tanks and they may have some difficulty getting the mob off you."
