PVP-Taking damage by fighter
#59435 - 05/25/08 12:29 AM

I know that there was an increase in distance for the Holy Roller hit, but come on.. I take damage when it is clear that I am escaping. The fighter doesn't even need to be close to hit! I'm betting that I get damage 1/4 distance of my range capability.


Added in edit:
Okay.. another observation is that I'm taking damage from fighter that is around a corner; that is, I round the corner and before the following fighter can round the corner completely, I take the damage.

3. He swings!

It's point 3 that has been adjusted recently... allowing the fighter's last swing to hit from a bit further away.

Thank you Stephen for your answer...this is exactly what I was saying with my post&quotes - so thanks for confirming. But, I suppose it isn't the whole answer as you say, lol.

I have to concur with Rainger on the last post though about moving from HR and still getting hit. I obviously haven't played pvp near as much as any of you, but sometimes I move when a fighter I know is going to habitually use HR from around a corner as he waits for me, etc, and I will overrun the corner on purpose, pass his line of attack, he activates HR, he CROSSES my line of movement at a 90 deg angle, swings after passing me and I'm turning to attack him, and I get hit from "the force" (10 ft I guess in perspective in-the-game distance from his weapon to my body; and facing a different direction) take dmg and knockdown. The fighter (its been more than one, and this has happened in diff ways) then turns and walks two steps to come beat me soundly, lol.

Now, I'm not saying its NOT lag, because I dont have the uber-ist computer, but I rarely get lag. And, if it IS lag, then how come other attacks or effects from other classes/pvpers (such as a mage throwing firebolts, or a ranger shooting fear shot) don't have the same "glitch" - like say I run from a mage throwing bolts at me, and as Im already past/out of range of where he was targeting. How come I don't sometimes get hit by a "blast" from behind me 5' as if I was there. Isn't that the same thing really, and if it's lag, shouldn't it happen with all kinds of targeted skills and not just HR? It also has happened with different fighters, not just the same one.

So, I'm not crying "buggy" and it's not effecting my overall fun or experience with pvp, and it may very well be lag for me - I dunno, but I do have it happen/have seen it happen to where HR "hits" when it seems it shouldn't (and I can see where it could be annoying for people who play pvp solely or habitually).

I've nicknamed it the Hook and Pull, as it looks like I'm a hooked fish being pulled back to the fighter.




/agree

However, I've had this problem since before the patch. So I'm still inclined to believe it is lag, which I know I suffer from almost constantly.
