Logic != Classic EQ.

nah it's actual misses. I've missed 10+ times in a row with a 40 delay 2hander which was enough for the mob to heal enough and resume fighting.

Yeah its happens with bows too, I counted 10 misses in a row today on a mob, started as soon as it started to flee. Noticed it as soon as I started playing but thought it was normal. Had a ranger on live and don't recall this but I started her after Luclin.

I too experience this.

I get a lot of 'out of range' in this case...I have to be a LOT closer, almost right on top of the mob in order to hit consistently. Don't remember that from classic. It hard to tell whether I miss more, as I seem to be able to try to hit a lot less.

Doh.

I would have to be colorblind and illiterate to mistake those messages...yes its missing.

I've noticed the same thing with my pet. As soon as the mob starts fleeing, my pet can't seem to hit it. Don't remember that being the case on live, but it has been over a decade. I also thought that if you hit something from behind, you would damage it more, or it would have less of a chance of dodging/missing. Don't know that for fact, just vaguely remember something along those lines.
