i know there is an <avoidmob>
Is there an opposite?
I'm farming the parrot and it seems to just ride by tons of pirates even with kill between turned on.
The "Engage by mobname" is build into the profile you're using, only it uses the mob ID instead of name. Make sure the profile contains all of the IDs you wish to attack.
Then it won't attack anything. Add them yourself. Target the mob in wow, click Target Info in HB and add the ID shown to the profile. IDs are referred to as Factions.
