Rifleman Archive

I've been out hunting on Yavin 4. Lately it's gotten very annoying for me to hunt anywhere because I use conceal shot primarily since I don't have the skill point to dedicate to CH. Not bad experience really. (3k per kill)

Of late I've seen a very annoying habit of the creature come to the fore. I approach. Especially by crawling, And the mob litterly runs away. I've walked up to with in 15 meters of a kliknik, then lay down and watch it start walking, then after the first conceal shot run over 100 meters from myself and the nest it spawned from. I get up close the distance to 60 meters, lay down again, fire once and then it it almost on top of me with no teleporting.

This is happening on EVERY creature I attack.

I'm currently 4343 in Rifleman.

Don't advise me to change tactics or use shot. I have nothign that would survive long enough as a blocker to let me kill the target.

Has anyone else noticed this behaviour of the mobs?

actuly i just use head shot you get three free shots on any mob when your pron and 4 shot makes them argo if they dont die

if you cant kill them in 4 shots then the mbs proply red con to you and you shouldint be hunting it

hope that helps and good luck

how is that a nerf? I think its great. the AI behaves more realistically.

Joe Kliknik is minding his own bussiness when he gets shot from nowhere. He knows it came from the left because of the big smoking hole on his left claw's exoskeleton, but doesnt know exactly where it came from. Joe Kliknik runs to the right.

common sense i'd say.

I used "Nerfed" as meaning changed. And it's not just happening when I have used conceal shot. The Run away action happens even before I fire a shot. It's happened when I walk up masked, then lay down. It happens when I try to crawl into range. It only happens to the one I'm targeting as I approach. If I approach a nest/spawn with nothing targeted. I can get within combat range easily. Only twice have I laid down then targeted something I had not targeted previously and they did not move away.

either they have given every Mob in the game "force senses" (I felt a disturbance in the force....) or the old "Have you ever felt like someone is watching you?" idea has been taken too far in my book

ah now i see what you mean then. Yes, i get that a lot now that im upping rifleman. you get to 64m and the mob thats taking a nap (prone) stands up and walks away. every single **edit** time.

without the ? or ! going over their heads.

So now i just run to 55m and kneel and mindshoot them before they get out of range.

Joe Klik is going down.

I have had no problems with any thing like this, ill hunt more or less any thing, take cover and use conceal shot over and over till its dead. Even thing that are argo to start dont bother me for the most part. They may walk closer to me, or wander away but not out of their spawn area.

I can't say I've noticed a change. Have not heard of anything officially being changed. Just a heads up from me.
