Dark Nucleus Orbs Not Following Tank in Blood Prince Council Encounter ( Shadow Resonance )

The Problem:
During the Blood Prince Council encounter in Icecrown Citadel, the Dark Nucleus orbs initially allow tanks to gain aggro by dealing damage. However, after a brief period, the orbs stop following the tank and remain stationary. This issue prevents the tank from effectively gathering the orbs, leading to a lack of necessary mitigation for the damage from Keleseth's Shadow Lance and Empowered Shadow Lance abilities.

How it should work:
The Dark Nucleus orbs are designed to fixate on the tank who generates threat by dealing damage. They should follow the tank, allowing for the accumulation of stacks of Shadow Resonance. This mechanic is crucial for mitigating damage during the encounter, particularly from Keleseth's powerful attacks.

How to reproduce:
Engage the Blood Prince Council encounter in Icecrown Citadel.
Assign a tank to Keleseth and have them attack the Dark Nucleus orbs to gain aggro.
Observe the behavior of the orbs after a short time; they should continue to follow the tank but instead remain stationary and unresponsive.
Monitor the tank's ability to maintain stacks of Shadow Resonance as a result of the orbs' failure to follow.

During the new spawning of Dark Nucleus Orbs, it will now target players randomly at first.

Other Reports given via DM/Specific Channel Fix regarding Blood Prince Council Encounter:

- Kinetic Bomb also adjusted to bounce longer when gain damage / being attacked.

- Empowered Conjuring Flame's chase speed is reduced and it is at fixed speed now, making sure it's no longer fast movement targetting Conjuring Flame.
