Strange thing; I was helping a youngster get exp on Dantooine with Bols. I used concussion as normal, but about 25% of the time midway through the concussion timer the bol suddenly ran to my position (Ran...not rubberbanded, I know that bug and this wasn't it) and started beating on me. I backed up and it stopped; the concussion icon was up all the time and lasted the normal amount of time. Hey, I'm a dummy...maybe it was player side lag? But it just didn't Feel like it. My young friend saw the same thing from her perspective on her computer. Not sure what it is, but it was strange. Any ideas? Anyone else see this ever? BTW, we were both using carbines at 40m. We weren't up close with pistols or melee weapons.

I get this from time to time myself. Since my computer is a little on the elderly side, I've always assumed it was a problem on my side of the game. Be nice to know that it was a bug of some sort though.

I highly doubt its a problem with any or your's PC's or connections. Happens to me all the time and just about everyone else. Its the very very weak coding the devs have. The AI is a joke. I don't see how they can plan a crowd control profession with issues like this in the game. I imagine what is happening is you root the mob and somewhere during the duration the AI see's the root is gone for a split second, and advances and then it "remembers" oh hey thats right im rooted, ill stop here.
And yes I like run on sentences.
