Shouldn't the mob just stay and fight me, or what? Or was my groupmate just screwed by the tick? If so, why does this happen? Seems a bit unfair, even as rare as it may be.

Without completely writing how combat works this is a slight possibility. Yes, they were screwed by the tick and the fact that nobody hit the mob (which would have kept it in combat) between the flee & the tick.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
