if the other targets are not in aggro mode, then no damage will occurr on them using an aoe attack... so... just hit twice with fanshot.... it makesthe lot of them aggro hence, damageable....


its the same deal with most of the aoe attacks in this game.. its a bi-product of the combat structure, not really a bug..

Tested this last night while doing my final Act 3 mission. RIght next to my objective werea bunch of Crystal Snakes. So I target one snake, hit it once with a bleed shot, then do /fanshot. Sure... all three snakes were hit, but so where half the NPCs standing nearby (much to my dismay). So there I am... 3 snakes (with more popping from the lair cause /fan hit that too) and 10 agro NPCs.


Bad!


Must remember to be a little bit more careful with fanshot.

is that is as the devs intended then cool, I know to cycle through the targets when laying prone and not gaining aggro. Is this in the FAQ?
