I have to agree with Congdar there has to be a better way to deal with the FD issue. I mainly play a monk and yes I do have to FD off aggro to my main tank bot often, would suck to see my whole group of bots just poof when I hit FD. That would require that monks unlearn a lot of basic group tactics to play with a bot group.
Hmm what about having your bots guard a pull spot while you go pull. You all of a sudden pick up aggro from 4 other mobs and need to FD, hmm bots poof...
This fix in my opinion breaks monks!
Now as for spawning bots while FD, that could be an exploit but it also has its benifits. You can't zone with bots so how do you prepare your group to zone into a place like PoG? I guess you could use invis zone in and spawn your bots, but I tend to zone in fd flop then spawn my group, then pop up an start fighting. Now both ways could be considered an exploit I guess, it does not really matter if your invis or FD you still have the ability to spawn bots!
I would say spawning bots invis is even more of an exploit than FD, invis up, run to uber_camp01, spawn bots and clear camp. At least with FD there is somewhat of a challange to get to a hard camp.
So if you are gonna remove it from an FD class better take off the ability to spawn them invis too.
just my 2 cents ...
