When someone who is positioned behind you (as is the case here) uses a skill like dirt kick on a different opponent, you switch opponents to the target of their skill. I'm not sure, but I think the same goes for spells.

In this case I use my pet, which is positioned behind me, to dirt kick a different NPC and switch targets, I then have it dirt kick my original opponent and I switch back again.

You sure they didn't rescue each other? Cause those NPCs do rescue each other and I wonder if it doesn't show the message if you're blind?

Post subject: 

Positive. I've seen this bug before.

Author:  Rennus_Dragonsbane [ Tue Sep 28, 2010 9:39 am ]
Post subject: 

When blind, it does show a rescue.

Author:  Edoras [ Tue Sep 28, 2010 9:40 am ]
Post subject: 

This has been this way for a very very long time. I believe it applies to spells as well as skills.

Author:  Sakhul [ Tue Sep 28, 2010 10:51 am ]
Post subject: 

Yeah, it has. Hopefully something can be done about it now.

Author:  Dulrik [ Tue Sep 28, 2010 12:01 pm ]
Post subject: 

So does this bug only happen when you are blinded? Otherwise, can we get another log that shows what is going on more clearly?

Beneath a Large Drain Pipe
A very faint, brownish glow can be seen coming from all directions which
casts a reflective gloss against the mold that covers the walls. The air
here is muggy and seems to be coated in the filth of this place. The stench
here is ghastly and seems to rise from the pool of sludge below you.
Muffled scraping sounds along with the unsettling of the pool below you can
be heard echoing off the walls of the sewers all around you. A large drain
pipe, that slowly drips dirty water to the filth below, is constructed up
overhead. The sewer opens up into a four-way intersection here.
Obvious exits: n e s w grate

A pile of garbage builds up under the pipe.
