Powers used from afar or out of LOS don't aggro mobs

I was playing my earth/earth dom and was able to reproduce this 100% of the time. If I used quicksand from around a corner none of the enemies were aggrod.

Exploit? Working as intended?

Not even the mob hit?

Ime, when one mob is hit other mobs "look around" for an aggressor. If the aggressor isn't visible they often just stay there in "look around" mode.
This effect can be reproduced with melee as well as non melee attacks by combining a jump and/or a cliff or wall into the execution.
Even AS can do this to a degree.

The mob I lay quicksand under does not move. This was on a team of 3, I haven't tried it solo. In all cases I've done it I was the first to attack and my opener was quicksand from around a corner.

Was just curious.

There must be something bugged about your character? I have seen no change to any of my characters that use out of LOS powers to pull. Even on my earth controller, quicksand still aggroes mobs, and stoney aggroes to their contact on quicksand the same as before i16. Yes, my very first attack is with quicksand too.
