View Full Version : some mobs invincible
Any else noticed that some mobs seem to not want to die, no matter the pounding that you put into it.
For example i went to the Battle Dome area and tried to kill a substandard cyber guard with my fully capped POB Melee Tank and i was doin about 150-300 dmg per hit on it and it would not die.
Some times this happens and other times it does not.
i have tried to reproduce this with the POB, but it hasnt happend to me on the Substandart CyberGuard.
If you find a way to reproduce this or any other helpfull infos about reproducing, please let us know.
Maybe the distance between you and the mob were different serverside. So on your screen you are very close to the mob and the dmg is shown clientside, but in real the mob is somewhere else and too far away for you to make melee dmg.
It's just an idea because it happens sometimes in retail, you also notice that if you kill a Warbot an want to hack it and cannot do that because the position of the warbot shown on your screen is not the position the server knows. In that case, I always tried to hack from some distance around the warbot till I stood close enough to the real position and hacking worked. Or i simply relogged, then the client gets updated and shows the mob on the real position.
I get that bug on terra too, its like the distance bug u get when u for instance take a spy and use a veh to "snipe" a WB, as u approach the WB and u get into range for opening fire, u can sometimes shoot it for ages without it being dmg'ed at all, the same goes for "sniping" as a HC tank, so basically it seems to occur on real far distances too.
As melee i normally dont wanna encounter smaller mobs, especially the SBS, the SSB, and the MCB, they seem to be the worst cases, a lot of times u can chase them around for ages hitting them without them getting dmg'ed.
It doesnt seem to be a distance bug as when i xp it, they lose hlt until a certain point where theyve around 1/8 or their hlt left, then they suddenly dont lose no more hlt.
To "fix" this i normally have to wait for some time and come back to finish off the mob later... :-/
