Archery Issue

[Akame]

On long pulls I generally bow down the incoming pull to begin aggro building because lets face it, taunt sucks on the warrior. The problem is some times/most or all of the time actually I freeze up once the mob is in melee range, and I have to sit down and stand back up and reattack before I can start swinging at the mob.

If I can explain it properly step by step...

On a 34 DE War -
Using a Runed Oak Bow & Class 2 wood point arrows from crafting.
I assist the puller then plink the incoming mob with 1 arrow, maybe two.
It enters melee range I turn attack on and hit taunt.
Nothing happens.
I turn attack off and back on.
Nothing happens.
I sit down, stand up, turn attack on, I start swinging at the mob.

Now I've certainly never cataloged this problem every time so I cannot without a doubt say it happens EVERY time but it happens often enough that I bet I could repeat the issue in front of a GM if asked. It just seems to not make the conversion from bow to weapons when the mob hits melee range and I turn auto attack on until I sit for some reason to clear ranged attacking and then stand up and attack.

I have experienced this problem in lower guk, upper guk and south karana.

Please let me know if you need any more information.

It could be possible about the long delay of the bow for being the reason of you not attacking in melee for a bit.

[Chanus]

I know you can't start Melee until the delay of your Range Attack has expired, so that's a likely culprit.

[Akame]

No it is not the culprit, I am talking about some 15-20 second intervals before I sit down, stand up and reattack and am finally successful in actually swinging.
