Sounds like we had the same guild master. A little note about the fear
tactic. Its a little mana intensive until you get a few levels under your
belt. Plus my animation seems to miss a lot when in chase mode. If you use
this tactic during your early years, watch that mana bar. You may be in for a
whole world of hurt when that mob kills your pet, grabs some friends and heads
back while you are banging your gate hotkey.

"You have insufficient mana to cast that spell" AARRRGGGHHH.
