I like the new change to hamstring! You can hamstring anyone now, even if they have something behind them.

"Sarcasm got Dulrik to listen and make necessary changes" - said no one ever.

I was not being sarcastic. This is an interesting change.

So are you saying you can hamstring anyone regardless of whether or not you they are protected from behind? That would seem to be a bug. I don't recall anyone reporting this to me in the past. Can I get logs, please?

It seems like the mount PC (either a griffon or a centaur) can be circle stabbed or hamstrung regardless of their position in the formation. They effectively have no position and are therefore vulnerable to such attacks despite whatever defensive measures they take (such as putting a NPC behind you. I guess I have some more testing to determine if I could also be hit with non-reaching weapons while being mounted from the second or third row.

K, gonna lock this one as it is essentially a duplicate of the other bug thread.
