Pathing Black Dire

[radditsu]

If the mob was still doing damage. It is just kiting, which is not a crime. Leving over buildings in com and dot rotting would be a crime. I bet a really really good shaman could solo.... if its not done already. Resists like a beast though

[pharmakos]

if this is an exploit then we're gonna need to ban every druid on the server

[Handull]

if you run in circles and avoid getting hit, thats not an exploit

if you dance around a very small area but the dance causes the mob to re-path and never reach you, or if you can stand still and the mob can never reach, thats an exploit

anything in between is grey and open for debate

regardless, if you want to submit the pathing to MM as a bug, then be more specific (pictures, video, maps, etc). if you want to report someone for exploiting, you came to the wrong place

Don't see anything wrong here as long as Black Dire had the ability to attack and reach the player (if he caught up to the bard)

sounds exactly like exploits tbh

Meh missed that, original story was kiting around the pond. Will check it out

[Alunova]

Can't completely fix this, but it will be much harder to kite around the pond and there will be much less running back and forth after next reboot.

Fixed, pending update

I can assure you, using pathing in the freeport arena to kill Jakom, and jumping in the arena to avoid PVE death xp loss, are 100% classic features.

Got suspended for it once.

Worked until 2005ish? Later even .. still works on P99 because its classic I guess [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

And same is done with levi at AM pit in guk, and then prolly in 100 other locations.
