Feign Death

Virtuosos · #1 08-15-2010, 02:36 PM

question.....how does feign death work? im sitting here trying to understand it, and yet everything i do goes against what i thought.

what i THOUGHT happened was, when FD was successful, aggro was gone : you aggro a mob, mob comes up and starts hitting, you successfully FD, mob should act like you disappeared and it should path back after a good minute.

but, im sitting here watching myself FD in runnyeye atm and i am pulling, I aggro, successful FD, but the mob keeps hitting on me. This is happening alot, and its kinda funky cause i dont understand why its happening.

turn auto attack off first

Virtuosos · #3 08-15-2010, 02:39 PM

autoattack automatically turns off when you feign death i thought?

Auto attack on when you FD causes it to mess up like 90% of the time. Always, always turn it off before FD.

Some FD lessons...

1. If you are being hit the FD is harder. The more mobs hitting you the more difficult. I try to get a little space before I FD.

2. If the MOB is a caster and is in midcast you're fucked. It won't stop the spell because you are FD and once the spell lands they will be on you like white on rice.

3. If you break aggro and the mob walks away don't get up. Wait for a message (usually takes a minute to two minutes) that says, "Your enemies have forgotten about you!" Otherwise, they will be coming back for you.

The above info is correct, but should also mention that if you can see a non roaming NPC return to their spawn, they have forgotten you at that time. You do not have to wait for the message on static spawns.

Do you last couple guys even play a FD class on here?

Feign is instant on here like early Live. Static or wanderers lose agro immediately.

I dont play a monk here, but my necro fd does NOT clear aggro on wanderers. It also does NOT clear aggro on anything immediately. If a static spawn is halfway back when I rise up he comes back...if I wait for him to place himself on spawn hes cleared.

If it works differently for the skill fd, Im unaware.
