Just curious... I've /bugged it and put it in the issues thread, but I thought I'd ask here.
I went out today on naboo -- CL 80, master carb/rifles BH 0404 -- to kill some creatures to check the current naboo bristley stats.
Everything I attacked, whether with my rifles or carbines, could not be damaged! Not only that, but the creatures never did any damage to me. At first, I thought HAM bars weren't updating, like in beta..
But when I dealt over 50k damage (according to my combat spam) against a CL 4 chuba, I knew something was wrong!
After about a minute of what felt like a sissy slap fight with the chuba, it just despawned. Same thing happened with other creatures I came across.. flewts, chubas, shaupauts, etc... "combat spam damage messages, no HAM damage, creature despawns".
CLs were between 4-30 something.
The only thing I could kill were spiders, and any creatures that hung around near Theed. If it was a wild spawn, or wild lair spawn, I couldn't damage it and it never damaged me.
Is it just me?

ROFL, yep I've had this too.
It first surfaced on TC-Ep3 and has been bugged ever since.
Workaround is to unequip your ranged weapon, target another critter, try attacking that, then switch back to your original target.
Nine times in ten that'll fix it. Course, sometimes all it does is aggroes two or three invulnerable beasties onto you, then you're hoping it DOESN'T fix itself.
Oh, if you keep plugging away for a few minutes they eventually vanish.

Another fix is to logout then back in. Just don't make the same mistake I did. Find a safe spot first.![]()

This has happened to me as well. Also, traps don't work on them, and sometimes I have attacked a creature to have combat break instantly after that attack. This does not apply to certain CL's of creatures, because I have one hit killed creatures that show "you do not have permission" when I try to loot them.
