Thread: Mob pathing broken since 16.3.3?

    Mob pathing broken since 16.3.3?

    I noticed during clan week last week in Pande that about 1 mob in 20 would run away from the TC instead of moving toward the blob. Last night, I saw the same behavior from a Notum Scourge in Pen.

    Has anyone else noticed a high rate of mob pathing problems since last week's patch?

    I recently did Nascence hecks with an enforcer outside team tanking. Never did that before, so I cannot say if anything changed. What happened is that the enfo pulled loads of hecks and brought them to the team. Then he mongoed. All hecks are drawn to him, except for maybe 2 in 15 that instead run away. After a few meters, they take a screeching turn and run back to attack the enfo. Looks like they think that the scenic route is the shortest one.

    And yes, I always edit my posts.

    I've seen this before 16.3.

    Can't say I've noticed it being any worse/better than before. MOBs quite often take a scenic route if they feel they can't get to you in a more direct fashion, even if it's not exactly obvious what is stopping them...

    Unfortunantly, this is definitely something that has always happened, although I would say it used to be one mob every other pande raid, and now it seems more like 5 or 6 per raid. It could just be a weirdness in the universe's random number generator though.

    Mostly I just wanted to know whether other people had seen a marked change.
