I'm doing the 25 culti, and I was fighting an Adalwolf Shapshooter. I had it down pretty low, so I figured: Heal up, let it waste out the last 2 shots on itself.

The best laid plans get screwed over by glitches..

Well, all went fine until it hit me 4 times in under a second, 98 a shot is close to 400damage in under a second, fighting at lvl 26 that's ALOT of damage in one shot, and is impossible to keep up with. Not to mention TWO were AFTER is died, what gives?

Anyone have anything similar happen?

    You had a case of lag, where u were running or whatever and he wasn't attacking then when server caught up all the hits registered what u didn't see.

    not true, I had no lag at the time. It was attacking normally, until I stopped attacking to let it kill itself. Then it let of a barrage of arrows. (Diablo 2 style (game came out in 98, if it's still competition that's sad..))

    How would you know its not lag? If you had some with you and saw that it wasnt lag, then that would make sense. I believe it would be lag because every since the expansion Ive noticed more lag than usual. Anyway Ive experienced what you are talking about so I think its lag.

    yea ive been having odd glitches with this. Like I kill a mob, then its' respawn immediately starts going after me, without me being close to its location, or attacking a mob near it.

    its like the game doesnt end its' battle mode and it still thinks you are fighting it, even after u killed the 1st one.

    It happens to me if I use a voodoo while the mob is respawning.

    That means you did not lag up until the last second... Does not mean you didnt lag at "the last second".

    Server lag is a common issue but mobs in this glitchfest of a game usally always get their final up yours and hit you before they die it's something that has been addressed in gaming sites reviews. They even cast spells after they are stunned if the channeling was complete in my experience.

    And when I was grinding in NS back in the day I remember stunning mobs right before I killed them and yet sometimes I still just got hit by all of them for 1,5-2K anyway, sometimes half a sec after they were dead. It's like they get a free auto-hit just to drain your HP more.b:lipcurl

    whats ridiculous is the amount of QQ and arguing over a single death at lvl 30 or lower.

    adalwolves, of any kind (lvl) are aggressive mobs. this means they will attack you even if youre standing idly.

    there is no new glitch that gives a single mob quadruple hits at death. the single hit registering after it dies tho is common, well established, and pretty much accepted. you either lagged, or were ganked by more than one mob. end of story.

    note: if this happened at 60+ I'd be pissed. At 28 I'm being informative and asking questions
    play more in lower areas, nothing agros anymore, at all.

    in fact, just go stand in the middle of werewolf spearmen, see what I mean.
    it was one mob, and 3 after-death shots

    ahem. i have. and they do aggro. just the west arch region alone, aggressive mobs: treeline wolfking, trees, ghouls (both kinds), adalwolf spearmen and adalwolf sharpshooters (i think thats what they're called). and that is just off the top of my head. where some people are getting the idea that mobs aggro was nerfed i really have no idea. it is completely untrue.

    now for some ways to aggro these mobs: stand too close and dont do anything, heal yourself or another player, buff yourself or another player, attack a mob in close proximity, run past them, walk past them, land from flying near them, have one spawn too close to where you are standing doing nothing.

    you're just pulling statements out of thin air to try and justify your assessment that something outside of the well-known realm of possibility occured. it didnt. no new glitch, nothing supernatural. you either lagged and didnt know it, or were being hit by something else you did not see. what is the point of trying to argue and come up with a new, fact-less reason as to why that happened? is that going to get the exp back? no.

    just be more careful from now on, and dont assume that mobs are broken and no longer freely aggro.

    yea ok, whatever you people say. like im going to just disregard my own personal experience over the past 2 weeks leveling both a psychic and a cleric seperately in that same area where those mobs did in fact freely aggro on me, just beacuse 2 players with no technological authority over the game say so. *rolls eyes* have fun dying repeatedly and not knowing why guys.

    Look at the multiple people... the multiple threads that disagree with you... ... and the multiple mobs that do not agro you.... The only case where they have agroed me is if i have killed one, in which case they will randomly respawn and instantly attack me no matter how far away they were...

    how about a lvl 67 veno then? Take a few moments to go WALK those areas, I can verify, and I challenge you to prove otherwise.

    I'll tell you what, I will walk those areas, AND record it. ALL OF THOSE

    Vinat clearly has no idea, theres no such thing as random agro, the low level mobs at arch west do not agro, regardless of how far ur head is up ur ****...they...do...not...agro...period.

    the right thing was that when u heal just as the mob u killed with its instant respawn, also some mobs that dont even chain agro can agro u, such i was doing the hard teeth quest on the terawraith archers earlyer on,
    i killed 1, healed and 2 of them from about 30 meters away just started hauling **** towards me so i flew up in the air to lose agro,

    it wasnt random agro, its the heal or buff agro i suppose from when it respawns instantly.

    since mobs appear glitchy atm, the OP prob died from the heal agro, when she said she wud heal up, used the heal skill, pulled glitchy agro and prob got shot down by 2-3 mobs at once.
