so, there i am, out in the desert on tatooine, and i come across a bocatt lair. so i decide to go over and see what kind of xp i can get out of them. i pull one out and we start fighting, then his buddy comes over and i think 'that's fine, i'm not taking much damage, i can handle this'.

what happened next i still don't believe. ''a bocatt (baby)'' comes over, stops about 10m from me, and starts spitting at me, each shot hitting for 180-210 damage. i didn't believe it until i looked in my combat log, and sure enough ''a bocatt (baby) hits you for 193 points of damage''. so, *pouts* i was incapped by a cl 1 baby bocatt.

has this happened to anyone else? kind of embarassing i think, that a baby comes over and incaps me while i'm apparantly being tanked by 2 full growns. lol. oh well, just a 'heads up' for you guys: watch those babies!

ranged attacks on babys are not reduced in damage. they do the same as full grown.
the best thing to do is to engage in melee and not let them stay at range.

it always was like this, nothing new.

hrm. well, i never knew about it before it happened to me. and i'll wager alot of people haven't experienced this either. but i don't see how this is not a bug? just because it's 'always been like that' doesn't mean that's how it's intended. how does it make sense that a baby does 1/10th melee damage and 10/10th ranged damage of a full grown?

on a side note, if/when this does happen to you guys, make sure to /bug it!

i never noticed this, but somehow i'm not suprised...

baby rock beetle pets shoot for full damage too. but for some reasonm only get off one hit before they go in to melee, and miss the majority of the time in my experiences.
