Hi - I've read through this whole thread to make sure I have an understanding of how this works now and I'd like to confirm I've got it right. Hope this is an appropriate place.
I'm looking to camp Aeonaxx in Deepholm while I'm at work (have WoW up in the background and listen for the blaring noise while doing my actual job). From what I gathered, pre-MoP mobs have trouble being triggered now? It requires either a mouseover or for nameplates to register for the alert to go off. Thus, to have Aeonaxx trigger an NPCScan alert without my active participation, I need to have "Always Show Nameplates" as well as "Friendly Players" checked in the Names section of the interface (because I believe Aeonaxx starts as a mountable friendly npc) and then hope he comes close enough to my camp spot that WoW sees the nameplate so that NPCScan can do its thing. Is this all correct? Am I missing something, or overcomplicating something? Thanks for your hard work!
