Reminds me of Everquest, circa 2000, when a player got in over their head and started a 'train to zone'. Enemies would chase you to the end of the map/zone, so when a player realized they couldn't win a fight, they'd beeline for the boundary, and often picked up dozens of other enemies along the way. When they crossed the zone boundary, all those enemies would suddenly have no target, and fixate on any poor soul who happened to be nearby, or along their route back to their spawn area. Haven't thought about that in a long time.
