Ok so i'm on lok find a giant dune kimo and i'm buffed ready to go. I initiate attack and he runs away, and stays at 30m. The god damn thing is kiting me! How am I supposed to fight this thing when he won't stay in melee range?

i thought the devs changed it so that only targets your not attacking will kite, if this is not a bug then doesnt it mean that every melee profession is now useless for tanking high end mobs?

Ahh! This happened to me while running Imperial Faction Missions. Since the Devs love the rebels, and they wanted to make it "realistic", they kited me, and 2/5 were using stun weapons

with a creature the size of a kimo, i've noticed that i can usually hit it even at 15-18m. /follow it and use manually move to keep in range as needed.

Yeah, /follow works on everything that has ran from me so far. However those imperial probot droids never stop running away. Every time I try to go TK on them I follow them so far my mission respawns. I finally gave up on them and just whipped out my rifle to one shot em.

Yes I had the same exact experience. The Kimo would get close, take a swing at me, then run away about 20m. It was very annoying an I did'nt want to just /follow since he would lead me into more red con mobs. Eventually I just had to stand still so he would come a little closer to attack because he does'nt have ranged attacks. I could usually get off a couple of unarmed hit 3's every time he would come close before he could move away again. I definately hope they fix this bug in the AI.

Yeah! how dare those ranged attackers actually use tactics and not take their beating like good Mobs!


Yep kiting stinks, but /follow does help and KD or Lunge as soon as you can...

Being a smuggler/TK is great, I just FD and then get right up and they aggro me, then I stomp a mudhole in their arses.
