Sometimes you also need to get out of re-aggro range before hiding so they don't pick you back up - though in this case I don't know what aggro style the mob has so not sure if relevant. IIRC hide breaks any aggro, but only hides you from sight, not sound, so if it aggros sound and you're still in range when you hide it'll just pick you back up, or something like that.
Edit: because I suck at forum posting.
Hide can be used to cover anything but scent. As for vivix using Flee then hiding, he likely tried to bring despot away from chess and when he hid, depot ended up aggroing chess.
It took us 5 pages to get to the point of someone suggesting #wellactually Vivix was trying to save Chess lmao.
Ya'll really got an issue with Occam and his razor, because nah.. He likely was just trying to do what he did, which was MPK chess.
