Absolute best thing to do is tell the Tank which target you are sheeping if we get an add. As a tank I always will soak up any adds that come along. If the mage is in mid-process of sheeping I will frequently break the polymorph just as you complete casting. :blush: This can be done with macros where by selecting the target and then pushing the macro button it will inform the party that you sheeping "X" target. Damned if I know how to make it though. :P Its also okay for you to let the tank get pounded on a bit while you type out "Sheeping add" or you can even wait until you see the tank stop attacking that target and move back to the previous target to sheep. :)
Also don't pull. Evah. I mean it. Especially with a fireball. ;)
