Strange glitch . . .

Noticed something weird for the first time while I was grinding. Everything was fine at first; my pet attacked the mobs and they would attack back. I was too lazy to fight, so I was watching interesting videos on Youtube. Then, I flew overhead my pet (maximum height) to heal and the monster stopped attacking. I attacked another mob in the same position, the monster didn't attack. It happened again.

I remembered something similar about a Veno glitch where they would attack (land/physical) bosses with an air pet and it would be unable to attack back. The only thing different is that the Devil Chihyu is a land summon. Yes, it can can fly, but the cloud disappears and it seems to be on land when it is getting ready to attack. I would say this is a glitch because I have to be at a certain distance/angle for it to occur.

Any thoughts or comments about this? Or can you please try to see if this happens to your myst? Thanks.

    Something similar happened today when I was seeing if I could handle Gouf, actually. I flew up over him since I knew he'd probably tear my Chihyu to pieces and then come after me, sent the pet to him, and he didn't aggro. The pet, however, wasn't doing any damage to him, either, and still had a cloud underneath him, even though he was on the ground.

    Of course, when I actually flew a few feet to the site, dropped off my kite, and hit the ground, the cloud disappeared from the Chihyu, and Gouf proceeded to eat him. b:surrender

    I did think it was rather odd though that it wasn't causing aggro...but he wasn't taking damage, either, just like a mob that's in the middle of resetting after chasing someone or something.

    Shahiro's description sounds exactly like the veno glitch (which, as i'm sure you know, is a bannable offense if the GMs get convinced you're taking unfair advantage of it), but the thing with gouf sounds new.

    gouf, unless i misremember, is one of the traditional examples of a veno-glitchable boss, so he "should" have been taking damage; no idea why he didn't, that might be a new mystic-specific angle to the glitch. maybe it's to do with the way mystic pets can fly when they need to? i dunno.
