It is not just inkspewers, many mobs are using some of their abilities far too frequently, often with overlapping duration.
Take any mob with a net ability (e.g. Galak Wrangler or Woodpaw Trapper) - those mobs have a 10 second net ability. Moreover, they use ranged attacks if you are >8 yards away. Finally, they usually recast their net ability before the previous net has expired.
This creates a very unique scenario for melee classes:
1. If the mob aggros you from range and nets you, the fight becomes a glorified ranged weapon competition - you can easily die in a 1v1 fight such as this, unless your ranged weapon skill is high enough.
2. As the mobs run away at 15%, if you don't manage to finish them off before they escape melee range, they will proceed to shoot you from range once they have stopped running.
Personally I don't have a big issue with those features. I highly doubt they are blizzlike, however.
