Killing noobs without dueling them

So yeah, this guy and 3 other friends of his laid a guildhall by a group of houses me and my friends own and had been hanging out at. So the noobs were grinding on the large spawns of bantha's and so we got as much agro from the bantha's as possible and stood where the noob was inbetween us and the bantha, and he dropped like a hot patato. Then he got up and we killed him with them, since he still had a incap. Then we headed to lok and blew up an AT RT, swoop, and AB-1. So if some noob is smarting off, or some guy is gloating about his new BARC he just bought, get agro and end it! lol. Another thing, me and my friend thinks that it wont work with certain NPCs, flits did almost nothing, but big animals like Bantha, and Snorbals worked great, as well as anything using a blaster, but that is tricky.
Hope you guys find it as amusing as i did.

Yeah but wouldnt it be considered exploiting? Because your exploiting the agro to kill players..? If not oh well, was just posting it to let other people know

nay. u lose aggro even if the mobs incap you. getting incapped from no-slay mobs is identical to cloaking. thing is, the only reason that noob got the aggro after you is likely because he was shooting those mobs. if he wasn't, even with cloak, they'd simply lose aggro and return to their original spots until the next shmuck aggros them. more than likely, what occured, was the noob was using some sort of AoE, expecting u guys to tank the mob for him, but you had other plans... sneaky! Thus, in summation, it's not an exploit if the "anger-buildup" (which determines whom any mob is going to be attacking) causes the mob to eventually turn on to someone other than yourself, since you stopped attacking it and the noob kept attacking it. Major NAY
