Here is some info for right know, at the moment my main computer crashed so I need to get it fixed so know I,m using a crappy computer, so I though it was the graphic card so I went on another computer that's better then the one I'm on so i logged in and the same thing is still happening.
Later today I didn't have the same problem and it's not my computer because it happened on both of my computer's so could Gm's fix this.

okay so after a few I started killing mobs again and i just used will of the bodhisatva
and it's also copying it to.
like I said I was killing these same mobs yesterday and wasn't doing it until about a few hours ago.
wish a Gm would at least post a reply of some sort.

    from your picture it looks like the mob is resetting. this is not a bug they always run back to their original location.

    This is nothing new. Some monsters will counter your moves. Some of them will sprint if you do, I've heard of one boss that will change its defense if a BM uses a marrow.

    suzerix uses marrows while you are attacking him (i dont know if he has both, but i know he has the one that causes a white pillar)

    this is without BMs btw...

    Either way, this is proof that monsters have the same skills that players do, plus tons more.

    ya but mob resetting is a golden shield animation you also see when you x2 spark or cast wings of grace, not cloud sprint back to its position...

    melee mobs having cloudsprint would open up a whole new can of pain for poor archers and caster classes out there b:sad

    but this is interesting tho, i gotta see for myself b:laugh

    it's usually just a glitch

    i remember back on night scream, sometimes when i zerk'd, a mob would get the same fire animation

    i'm sure it's true for cloud sprint and other effects

    I can remember a lot of threads when the animation would appear on both you and your target, but the effect wouldn't be present.

    mobs have all the same buffs that player characters have. only difference is, the mob ones are permanent in duration (or at least i've never had a mob's buff wear off before i killed it)

    list of buffs i've personally seen mobs use, and that aren't just copies of my own skill usage:

    1) Strength of the Titans (barb buff, increased physical attack power)
    2) Quicken (part of cleric RB, increased physical attack rate ie melee and ranged, not cast. also a weapon addon skill)
    3) <insert name of pdef boost weapon addon skill here>
    4) same as number 3, but for mdef
    5) Bramble Guard (veno basic reflection buff)
    6) Phys/Mag marrow (suzerix is the only mob i've seen use this, and not sure if he has both)

    i think there's more, but i can't remember off the top of my head... (i've been around the map and fought with basically everything less than level 80)

    Say what? So your saying its normal to for mobs to mimic players moves?

    Iv not once ever seen a mob do any of my move or any skill of another class. unless ofcourse it was the mob's designated skill. What are you smoking? picking too many flowers maybe.

    Mobs do not cloud sprint period. There is obviously something wrong with the situation the poster has presented.

    Guys please. If you don't know what you're talking about please don't post just to look smart. Rattus snipers do not have cloud sprint. We all know this. It's a glitch.

    This glitch appeared after that huge patch along with the rubberband glitch and the additional swamp water glitch everyone pretends was always here. Basically what happens is, if you use a skill right beside a mob just around when they're gonna attack (I think, there's a particular timing), the skill animation will be copied by the mob. Just the animation. This actually happens to me a lot when using physical marrow.

    Since it's not a major issue I doubt it'll be fixed by the devs, though of course it should be, like a lot of the minor bugs, it makes the game look amateurish and badly made.

    It's not just mobs. I have people copying my animations all the time when I'm in a squad with them. Like clerics having cloud sprint animations, and barbs having marrow ones.

    It would probably be the same with mobs: It's not the actual buff, just a graphics glitch.


    Alexeno is also right that some mobs do have the same buffs players have, but this is not related; because those mobs use the buffs whenever, not exactly when we do.

    whatever the BM has targeted at the time of using cloud sprint will mimic the animation but there is no REAL effect.

    So you're saying that every single time it happens someone has timed it perfectly and potted right when I buff? Are barbs psychic? O_o

    Get over what?
    I was just asking, but to you it seems I was QQing about it, also it has been stated that mobs don't do cloud sprint at all and it's not been here forever because the other day I was killing the same mobs and it didn't show this when I was using cloud sprint.

    Can you point me to the proof please? I'd like to read it.

    From my understanding, mobs in instances just have a larger range of damage they can produce (example: 100-1000 damage) rather than producing actual double-damage crits.

    Although I guess it's rather a moot point in the long run, either way you stand to potentially take a large amount of damage.

    A few times, if I have my screen angle camera whatever set right, when I do stone rain, it shows one boulder hitting me and one hitting the mob. Doesn't do dmg to me, but it's still pretty scary. Makes me worry "WHOSE ATTACKING??!!?!"

    yes, this glitch is very annoying when flying around swamps. the most noticable animation with sound is the ice attack. that high pitched "tink" and u still have full life.

    i've seen the visual glitch on players in fb59 when they had no apoth pots. i havent managed to get a ironheart on a mob yet lol
