I hated warping mobs

Couldn't they do something else other than have a mob warp on you?This isjust a horrible idea to implement. Maybe I simply have really BAD past experience with this from EQ.

True.. not sure how difficult the code is to modify of course but I would have thought that instead of warping a MOB a new Path around an object would have been better.. or just having the MOB warp 20m forward as opposed to warpingwhere it would have been "several seconds after being stuck".

So long as it only affects truely stuck mobs, it shouldn't affect us too much. The times I've gone krayt hunting we've had real people and pets tank them, not harvs and rocks, so I don't see this as a bad thing really.

Well we don't have the 2.5x melee modifier anymore (and there was much rejoicing) so unless you are prone it shouldn't be anywhere near as deplorable as it was back when we were grinding out. However, after fixing the pathfinding issue I doubt they would break it again. And if they do it'll be a quicker fix this time.

I can see why it HAD to be done.


Some people just have to abuse everything they can, and that includes the people who carry harvesters for Krayts and who trap the Giant Dune Kimos against the wall of their city.


Hopefully this wont be as bad as it can be.
