Archer Class Bug or working as Intended?

[LawBringer]

Only noticed this since latest patches - not had the char I have experienced problem with 50 for long so no idea if it was like this prior to patches but....

When Hunter or Ranger is at max range (I assume +toa range bonuses) they do not pop up in target window (as it has always been) but additionally I have found that whilst at this range they completely negate any evades or blocks that I would normally get v their arrows. Is this a new bug? or has it always been like this. Your input please b4 I decide whether to Rightnow it.

Thanks in anticipation.

Probably your Ticcy and I talked with you about this and would like to add that this happened to me many times today when I was playing my theurg. Ranger Ziroox shot me about 200 times today and never did I get him as a target and didnt even see the whole person but few times. Like he wouldnt come off stealth at all to shoot me. Would understand if he would be luri then he would be hard to see at open or tower but being quite big celt it really makes me wonder whats going on with this. Also not sure but I think I didnt see any arrows sticking from me when I got hit that would have indicated the direction. I didnt have such problems with other zergling rangers he was with I think and did see em shooting me all right and saw em standing in the forests and towers etc... Is there some bug around causing this or something?

Also now im writing anyone care to tell me whats the range of warlocks ns and dot really are? Got totally pwned by one really since never thought there would be much longer range than pets +9% range really. Know NS on normal NS classes have higher range but the dot was really suprising.

With the Range primer the NS are DoT are the same distance. This can be anything up to 3000 base units, plus 10% range from ToA depending on the WLs spec.

Alyssania was it around eras tower1?.
think it was u petting tower door ,when i came with my WL(name starf)+a walk on stick.

but that ranger iam almost sure about the name "Ziroox" arrowed me many times 2,
and last attacker said "not vis."and "out of range"even though that the first time was in bold t3(think u came there also)and i was on bm and he was on roof pumbing arrows at me.

(no class should b able 2 attack out of last attacker range)

I was the Tic - I did not put any names in my post, I feel this is an issue, but not first time for me so Ziroox just happened to be the arrow firer. I don't think he is doing anything wrong it appears to me to be a GAME issue not an individual player. Would help if whoever plays Ziroox can post what he gets from his end though

i am sure true shot would get around this as its 50% more range to the allready toa bonus's etc

trueshot or volley perhaps?

I get the problem when people shoot you and they don't come on the target window. And when people are in agramon and they either up a hill somewhere barely visible it is annoying, since your paning your camera everywhere since u can't /face them. and by the time you realise where they are they run of and re-stealth.

Had this thing a few times over the last week aswell. Im not sure if ive ever had it before, but id think i usually get people targetted when i get hit by arrows.. or not? Isnt it, if you dont have a target, if somebody attacks you, you automaticly target them? It could be some new volley thing or smth.

 

[Alyssania]

Well the problem for me is that I know there is the thing if you get shot from very far away you dont get him as target but basically I was at the tower and got shot all the time and no idea where since no arrows on me and no way to face and couldnt see him anywhere. And no matter where I ran he kept shooting me and no targt still. Same was when he shot me at another tower I was defending. There I eventually found him behind a tree that wasnt so far away probably trying to stealth.

Volley it wasnt that im 99% sure but this trueshot might have been it and he could have been shooting me from totally another place than I thought... That would make it very annoying because soon there will be 200 archers running out there assist killing everyone from 6k range without anyone being able to know where they are...

This is very interesting .................. and involves the ranger Ziroox.

Last night was at Da Behn twr (3?) and the door was going down in health with a noise that any bow proc dot makes; went running round like a headless chicken trying to find the ranger/hunter hitting the door to no avail - the door keeps going down making the proc dot noise.

I move back in the tower and 2 mins later fg hibs turn up as I'm watching from the BM. They start bashing the door and low and behold Ziroox pops a few yards away and appears to be hitting the door as if he already had been...

Now I'm not accusing anyone of anything but that door was going down with noone around and noone visible........ going on what people have just said I can reach my own conclusions.

... oh and I neglected to say that 5 mins before chased lone luri got down to 5% health, started turning into a pin-cushion, tried /face, no joy but was being hit by said ranger. Looked around nothing, kept looking whilst di was being eaten up ... nothing. Again go figure.
