Chardok zone is totally bugged after restart

This is still an issue. Multiple mobs are warping throughout the zone.

Compounding on this, some but not all mobs are warping. It's extremely selective--I suggest watching an AOE pull to see what is going on. Usually about 3-6 a pull.

Another fun bug added and not removed--mobs are still melee'ing without LOS. Either standing in walls or on the opposite side of walls meleeing through them. Gooby pls.

If you're still seeing issues, post details for Haynar to look into.

Found the problem if you are too high in the tunnel. There are z checks to find path nodes near you. If you are too high, it doesnt find them and it skips pathing and runs right to you. Working on a fix for that. Snared mobs and skipping, what a mess, like Yeti caves. Working on how an AE pull would go, and adjusting stuff. That was a big diff in my testing, i didnt have lev on.

Did royals last night and mobs being pulled like normal seemed to follow their nodes correctly. Standing up after FD after a mob hadn't fully reset generally caused them to skip their nodes and path directly through walls back to me. This was happening in the hallway above royals.

Seems to me smaller mobs warp on the ledge, once they path over the rest spill over - very odd pathing.
I am now avoiding that ledge because every pull brings warps, also warps from every direction have started again.
Mobs inside walls & coming out of walls / hitting and casting from inside walls.
It worked well before I dunno what you changed, I know the feeling of changing something without a change log and never being able to exact the code perfectly again.
But levitate played some kind of roll in it, if I did the tag on ledge on say a dog it just auto path right off the ledge at super sow speed btw all other mobs would follow.
If it was a bigger mob like a golem it would be like a 50/50 chance at pathing over the ledge.
So I stopped tagging the ledge and tagged mobs lower in the trayer tunnel worked 90% of the time yesterday, today every pull no matter where it's coming from in there is 3 - 10 mob warps.
I think it has to do with the mob size/hitbox? Either way your doing a great job, path finding sucks & is confusing as hell..

They made changes server/zone wide because of some exploits - obviously they aren't going to publicize them in patch notes.

The pathing issues that have popped up since are side effects.

Thanks for this info. Having made that pull many times, brings back some memories.
