I dont think you need to be combatant, because marks auto-aggro the BH once you get close even when they arent white.
Sitting at about the 105 mark since these changes went live, and so far not a single mark has agro'd me.
Seriously, I've even walked up and /bonk'd them and /poke'd them and everything. No question mark, no agro. It's pretty weird. I'm thinking it has something to do with faction maybe, and whatever faction they are I have good standing. Hard to tell since mark's don't hand out faction anymore.
Most of the time if I have a white mark it does work, and after a few seconds they aggro me and I can fight back.
However some just stand there, no aggro, no agrro when AoE around them, thorugh them, past them etc.
Guess there are just some stubborn peace-niks out there
Had a few in buildings, used my bolotaur to attack it then called pet to me and was able to drag it out of building that way.
Haven't had a single mark attack me yet by me just being close, And thanks the going combatant thing did work on marks that conned white, well except for one nothing I tryed worked on him.

me neither...never, ever been aggro'd by a mark
thanks!
AOE = area of effect, i.e. you hit multiple targets in front/around you. This techinque never worked for me though.
Regarding white marks, out of 4 consecutive marks I had 3 spawn less than 1k from Kadaara 
Unfortunately, 1 was a swimmer the other 2 were white marks. Going combatant worked for both whities ... they aggro'ed me, however there seems to be another bug, in that they were hitting me for a mere 50ish damage before armor mitigation (note I'm level 76, NPC level 81-82). This has not happened with BH marks only, but also got aggro'ed by some troopers (after I went combatant) that were nearby, and killed 3 lvl 83 nova troopers without a sweat! (same 30-50 dmg per shot)
