They modified fd a while back. When successful, mobs under level 35 will
forget about you. Above that they have a percentage chance to remember you.
I'm only level 22 and have never had a mob remember me yet. If they are not
agro to me, I just fd, get up, then start bandaging right away. Sometimes
when I'm lucky I can bandage up enough to kill the mob before it wonders
away.

Acutally you need not keep screaming every time, once you
fall down the
first time, rather than standing back up and doing it again,
just hit the FD
button again, once it recycles without standing up. If you
recieve "SoANDSo
has fallen to the ground" you have failed. If you get no
message, chances
are you succeded (this is not always true). Go up to a
creature that
normally doesnt aggro on you, something really green, smack
it, then when
you know it is attacking you, FD. If it 'forgets' you, its
working. My
skill is over 100, and it works most all the time, I rarely
get the message
anymore, but I get many times where I am being mobbed, and I
will FD and
only SOME of the mobs forget me, and this is only for a
second. I am
currently in unrest and I can usually FD to most mobs that
are up to a low
red to me. Hags on the other hand I have only fooled a
couple of times.
Most of the times even when I time it inbetween their
spells, they still
seem to not be fooled by my feign.
