Immune to aggro?

**Eanae** · 2013-09-06 02:06

My character seemingly just became immune to aggroing any mobs what so ever. I can run the entire Ampador Keep instance without getting a single mob on me even if I stand on top of them. It's kind of annoying since I'm a tank. Anyone had this happen to them and fix it? I reported the bug but who knows if I'll get an answer back.

Might not be related but someone in LS was complaining Keep was buggy this morning as well.

I had the opposite problem. Occasionally mobs were invisible/untargetable on my screen, but could attack me and the party. I just stood in the middle with ballad on spamming flash for those rooms, it was awful. It seems like a bug and not just lag, since I could interact with them (taking hits, building aggro with aoe) but couldn't see them or use any targeted attacks/abilities.

I wasn't in Amdapor, but the other day I was trying to do a leve in Mor Dhona, and while I could see my own leve mobs just fine (hippogryfs & gigantoads), there were a ton of invisible/untargetable ones of the same type that would aggro and beat the piss out of me while I could do nothing about it other than run away. I think something bugged where someone else's instanced mobs were not staying inside their own instance. It made completing the leve almost impossible.

Near the end of a Garuda (hard) I did yesterday, Garuda did not reappear on my screen after a teleport. She was almost dead and I was SCH so it wasn't a huge issue but odd.

Also occasionally have issues targeting NPCs and mobs whose line of sight is blocked but you can clearly see the fucking model. If you set them as a focus target and have a key set to snap to focus target you can skate around this, but this was a bit annoying sometimes in Amdapor (to the point where one of the DDs couldn't target or hit the boss for a while).

Garuda did that in 1.0 occasionally too >_> haven't they fixed anything in this game?!

This is one of the most annoying things in the game for me right now. The fact that you have to move the camera (not your character) to target something that's standing behind a waist-high rock or 5" wide tree is pretty retarded.

Anyhow, this is kinda' turning into a Known Issues thread ( '~')>

If you can see them, you can click on them. I can't speak for PS3 users, but if I manually click on an NPC whose model is visible, but whose name is not, it will select them and their name will appear. I've had to do this multiple times for targetting Baderon because of all the people + carbys.

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2013-09-06 12:46

Nope. Trust me, I've had the mouse cursor change to the "you can click on this" icon, click, and target does not appear. I click from enemy list and it doesn't happen. This only happens with blocked line of sight where you can see the name + model. What you're describing is something different.

**AlexRuzhyo** · 2013-09-06 14:06

Had something similar happen to me: mobs went invisible and untargetable but would still aggro and attack me. This happened shortly after my sound cut out while mining. I had been online for three days at that point.

Ah, yeah you are correct. I misread.

I've had those huge-ass peistes in Southern Thanlan flicker into and out of existence because of their shady line-of-sight stuff. Quite comical to watch, unless you actually need to target the stuff.

**Drai** · 2013-09-06 15:42

I've had similar issues to OP, every so often I will log in and be immune to aggro on my Botanist, but than later after logging in again the same mobs in the same zone will aggro me.

Another note i've noticed mobs will aggro me on my chocobo, but will 100% ignore me on my Magitek mount, regardless of class and level, I can run to the back og natalan as a level 1 CNJ on my magitek mount and out again with no aggro, but the second I dismount, aggro city

Haha haven't had this but in one run last night either a mage or some other mob from the first sac after DW was targeting us with a ranged red circle flame AOE from across the entire map for the rest of the run. The mob was nowhere near us, but every 30s or so the red circle would appear out of nowhere and hit for like 2200 damage if you weren't paying attention. Ended up winning fairly easily but it was annoying as shit when it would spawn during Anantaboga; it happened once while we were stacked behind the statue waiting for room AOE and everyone just had to eat it. Really weird.

The succubi do that for some reason in AK if you leave them up, no idea why.

**Shenrien** · 2013-09-09 05:23

Happens to me on occasion, I'll run through like 2 packs of mobs without aggro, really annoying so I started spamming flash along the way now whenever I do pulls.

**Dngnhack** · 2013-09-09 05:26

Happened on a speed run the tank ran through and and one set of mobs didn't aggro him but definitely saw me coming...

**almae00** · 2013-09-09 10:03

maybe its a lag thing? :/ its weird anyway has anyone contacted SE to see what they say about this?

I reported it as soon as it happened since we know how heavy SE can get with the ban hammer. I got no response.
