Game Mechanics: Sneak / FD nerfs

[Raev]

1. Now that we have projectiles working (great work Haynar) can we get sneak dropping on ranged attack?

2. Somehow the sneak/invis clearing aggro patch got rolled back. Basically any time you stand up while indifferent you are guaranteed to blur.

When both of these are fixed pulling is going to be a lot more classic (not to mention balanced!) around here.

Worth noting that #2 specifically worked with Circlet of Shadows if you stood up and hit it IMMEDIATELY. You could even FD while a mob was casting on you, stand up and mash CoS thru the spell hitting you, and the mob still wouldn't re-aggro (assuming it didn't see invis, and there weren't other mobs in assist range).

Would be nice to be fixed 2 people camping seb king has too stop

[Raev]

The way it is supposed to work is that when you stand up indifferent, the mobs don't aggro, but its not a blur (they come for you when invis/sneak drops unless they reset first)

[Colgate]

pretty sure right now you can aggro non-KoS mobs, feign death, and immediately stand up and lose all aggro

would need to test more

How does an NPC not pursue after standing if you are still on it's hate list no matter if sneaking or not?

Makes no sense, the hate list is not dumped until the NPC resets or is mem blurred.

All mobs that were aggro are under the impression that the Necro/SK is still Feigned (Even though now the player is just Invisible)

If at any point before the mobs return to their static spawn points the Necro/SK's Invis is dropped they will see the Necro/SK as standing up and breaking their Feign

Point 1 bring the homework up, they need the proofs.

Point 2 not true, thats not a 100%, you could get blur once they hit their spawn point, before you have a chance they will instantly aggro back if you remove sneak or invis, also FD has a chance to insta blur. Also mobs cant aggro something they cant see.

Yeah IDK.

I don't understand how an NPC would not reaggro unless the hate list is cleared.

Feign/Circlet must have worked differently than Feign/Sneak.
