Need more specifics on what triggers it.

I happened to fux with this on live.

It requires you to be almost directly above the target.

I never had it happen without having levitate up/being over target... and even still you would need to be almost directly over head.

What eras did it work? Definitely during classic era, maybe on Kunark, no idea on Velious. These estimations are based on my time having access to a magician on live.

Killing ancient shardwurms in GD, if i wait until mob is down to ~80% hp, I can nuke freely without pulling aggro. This is a strange feeling [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So excited about this. Maybe I can finally bag my reclaim clicky when soloing. Fluffy can live for more than 1 mob!

!!! Okay, I'm making a donation to this project. Came here, took a break for 3 years because of this issue. Now that it's being addressed you can consider me one happy camper.

Thread here on how bolts would double from higher positions, which the reference states did not get fixed until Luclin, I remember doing this in Maidens Eye from hillsides:

Oh if we could get the classic bolt graphic back:

Thanks Haynar for the pet/bolt/mage attention, much appreciated!

Its a tossup to which is less fun. Bolts or Bards.

Haynar, any chance we will see this change on the server before Velious is released? Or is it going to be a package deal?

[Potus]

This is a great day. Praise be to Haynar.

[Arterian]

These changes coming to blue prior to Velious?

[Haynar]

Has anyone checked out pet aggro on live?
