Higher aggro on Ring of Fire?

I've noticed something odd on my Fire/Psy. When I am solo and attack something like a destroyable object or an enemy who has wandered a bit away from his buddies I can normally aggro only him, as long as I use only my single target blasts and Char. But, if I use Ring of Fire it often causes the nearby enemies to aggro at a longer range than my other single target attacks.

Does Ring of Fire generate extra aggro or something? It seems odd that using it aggros nearby enemies when using my other single target attacks in the same situation does not...

(It doesn't always do so, but it definitely seems to frequently alert guards or other members of a spawn that are not alerted by anything else.)
