[Core] Players physical attacks against NPCs sitting/laying down should always crit #3421

Open Notmittz opened 5 years ago

Notmittz commented 5 years ago

Description: When you melee attack the reaver, you don't get the guaranteed crits from attacking a mob that is sitting.

Current behaviour: Fel Reaver is standing up at the start of the fight and server is using the players normal character crit value to determine if an ability crits.

Expected behaviour: Should have a 100% crit chance when you melee attack, as the fel reaver is supposed to be "sitting" or "laying down". It should stay seated for the duration of the fight and all melee attacks should be triggering guaranteed crits.

Interesting, I'd think that this would be tagged as a Core Mechanic. Perhaps a more fitting title would be: [Core]Players physical attacks against NPCs sitting/laying down should always crit

Notmittz commented 5 years ago

maybe core? I can't think of any other instance/quest where a npc actually uses this mechanic so it could just be specific to this quest/mob only. It could also just be that the Fel Reaver is standing up and that's what causing the issue.

Bonechewer Evoker sometimes sits down if that's what you mean with "uses this mechanic"

Notmittz commented 5 years ago

ok, I just checked it out with those npc's. There is not a guaranteed crit chance again any npc that is sitting or laying down presently.

Would be good to have some proper video evidence for this though...

They start attacking it at 7:03 in the video. From what I can see, every yellow ability hit is critting 100% of the time.

Tenoutoften commented 5 years ago

Some auto attacks are just hitting normally and aren't critting... he normally crits about 1000, and you see big numbers but then there are small 500 so he definitely isn't critting all of his attacks. Maybe glancing blows? But looks too frequently to be just glancing

edit: I guess the title should be changed back to just an increase in crit chance vs fel reaver...

Notmittz commented 5 years ago

It is critting every hit though, every yellow (ability) is critting. The only small, no non crit yellow dmg is from his bleed which don't crit.

Don't think the normal, white damage is supposed to be guaranteed crit, but melee abilities for sure.
