My servitor won't hit mobs from behind anymore.

Much <3, your nerfs ALWAYS hit the right people.

XD I find this funny though since its crit rate sucks anyway.
play a dorf and learn to live with REAL nerfs ;)
Dwarves were hit by this.

I'm not upset, but it's hilarious seeing a mob and my shadow turning circles around each other trying to hit each other's fronts.

And yes, summoners have had the worst for nerfs - it's just that unlike dwarves, they also got a massive boost and needed some nerfing (not that it worked).
Your summon took up Bushido...
Its just trying to fung shui the mob to the perfect position for it to land in the proper position in death.

Isnt effecting Warlocks..

Was hunting with ours today and his cat was attacking fine from the back? Sure it wasnt just some wierd lag going on?
Sounds like an old complaint I sometimes hear about summons.
I have assassin servitor as a buff, half of it's effects only apply when behind the target.
ah.. that explains why my hatchling was behaving like a *******, moving in places i didn't think it would go and getting aggro and DYING ON ME EVERY 5 MINUTES
yeah me golems abit confused too
when agro switches from me to the golem (or vice versa) the mobs and the golem do a little dance around each other to get into attack position
It's so good to be low level Kiroth~ ^^ However, is yours also doing this funny dance?

And yes, the shadow will attack from behind once or twice when the mob is just coming past him, but then he will move around it to come to the front and hit it from right next to me.
I thoght it was mob ai actually, it my pet runs to the mob and they sorta run around each other and then start hitting, even if it agros me.
Mob AI got applied to servitor AI. : )
that would explain the dancing, I spent all of C5 practicing with how to place my servitor so that assassin would be of use. Thanks NC.
they also made raid bosses change their position so that you won't be hitting them from behind anymore.
How does that look like then? Does the boss turn around? because usually when fighting PB, people end up scattered all around boss. When tank has hate and players stab and smack from behind, does it turn even though it's aggroed on tank?
(haven't been on raid in Interlude yet)
I need to play my Warlock again =x

So I can be in the know about these things.
