Description

While killing fire giants near the bridge to the fire giant's fortress in Muspelheim I got added and was about to die. So I decided to jump off the bridge into the lava. When I jumped upon the balustrade of the bridge the fire giant turned away towards the end of the bridge to get onto the balustrade as well. When I jumped back on to the main level of the bridge the mob turned back towards the end of the bridge again to then meet me on the main level. Jumping back uo and down the balustrade would keep the mob from ever engaging me in melee.
This is easily abusable by any class in sofar as to avoid losing a fight with a fire giant on the bridge.

Reproduction Steps

1. go to Muspelheim to the fire giant's fortress
2. engage a fire giant in melee on the bridge
3. jump on the balustrade, see above description

Intended Behavior

Fire giants should be able to hit players on the balustrade without having to leave the main level of the bridge

Evidence

If working as intended, fighting fire giants on this bridge is a 100% sure way of leveling without ever being in danger of dying.
