| Post subject: | Mount rescues against reaching weapon |
A lot of things with playing a mountable character are wonky, but this one is probably the worst of all. If a player who is mounted (e.g., griffon, centaur) in the front rank rescues a player in the second, the character (and person mounted) get put in the second row behind the rescued player. Code: Group: Our Group (F1) [ PC Merc] (F2) [---------------] (F3) [---------------] (M1) [ PC Priest] (M2) [---------------] (M3) [---------------] (B1) [---------------] (B2) [---------------] (B3) [---------------] Characters Rank Pos Here Follow Prone HP ME PE PC Merc Leader F1 Yes No No 100% 100% 81% PC Priest Member M1 Yes Yes No 100% 79% 100% PC Mount Member ?? Yes Yes No 100% 29% 100% A really nasty NPC with reach's acidic bite barely burns PC Priest's head. A really nasty NPC with reach's acidic bite barely burns PC Priest's waist. A really nasty NPC with reach's acidic bite barely burns PC Priest's chest. PC Merc's acidic bite slightly singes A really nasty NPC with reach's chest. PC Merc's acidic bite slightly singes A really nasty NPC with reach's chest. PC Merc's acidic bite barely burns A really nasty NPC with reach's chest. PC Merc's acidic bite slightly singes A really nasty NPC with reach's head. PC Merc's acidic bite barely burns A really nasty NPC with reach's chest. Your deadly wrath lightly hits A really nasty NPC with reach's right arm. Your deadly wrath lightly hits A really nasty NPC with reach's left arm. Your deadly wrath starts A really nasty NPC with reach's right arm on fire. A really nasty NPC with reach winces as a series of fractures appears on its supernatural hide! Your deadly wrath barely hits A really nasty NPC with reach's waist. A really nasty NPC with reach dodges your attack. Overall, A really nasty NPC with reach has quite a few wounds. [HP:100%] [ME: 19%] [PE: 96%] A dark and grand hall PC Priest starts to concentrate. [HP:100%] [ME: 19%] [PE: 96%] A dark and grand hall You rescue PC Priest! [HP:100%] [ME: 19%] [PE: 96%] A dark and grand hall PC Priest utters the words, 'gszabra ay yauhp'. A bright spear of light appears in PC Priest's hand! PC Priest's faithful spear sails wide, but A really nasty NPC with reach still cringes in pain. [HP:100%] [ME: 19%] [PE: 96%] A dark and grand hall A really nasty NPC with reach causes you some slight wounds as its acidic bite singes your waist. A really nasty NPC with reach's acidic bite lightly burns your right leg. A really nasty NPC with reach's acidic bite barely burns your chest. You dodge A really nasty NPC with reach's attack. PC Priest misses A really nasty NPC with reach. [HP: 89%] [ME: 19%] [PE: 96%] A dark and grand hall PC Priest starts to concentrate. [HP: 89%] [ME: 19%] [PE: 96%] A dark and grand hall Group: Our Group (F1) [ PC Priest] (F2) [---------------] (F3) [---------------] (M1) [ PC Merc] (M2) [---------------] (M3) [---------------] (B1) [---------------] (B2) [---------------] (B3) [---------------] Characters Rank Pos Here Follow Prone HP ME PE PC Merc Leader M1 Yes No No 100% 100% 94% PC Priest Member F1 Yes Yes No 82% 72% 90% PC Mount Member ?? Yes Yes No 89% 19% 96% This has put both melee characters behind the priest. That's bad, right? This is a stance aggressive rescue, so maybe that's part of the contributing problem: as I understand it, stance aggressive attempts to shift you in formation so that you are in front of the other player, while neutral / defensive puts them behind you. And I suppose the fact that I technically have position ?? is what confuses the code? |

It doesn't go like this with NPC mounts. I have ordered my mount to rescue me and it does so without putting me on the second row. |

Ah now I see why you guys weren't doing much of anything during that. |

Yeah, it was a wicked sick combination of timing and comedy of errors. Shadow, did your mount rescue someone who was being struck in the second rank? |

With or without the party formation thing, you guys were pretty much hosed. A prepped, surprise attack on a group like that where they're already engaged with a tough NPC is pretty hard to lose. [Edit] But this bug definitely needs addressing! |
