Guild Wars 2

Hey. As you know, monsters become Invulnerable when they cannot find any path to the attacking player.

GW2’s world isn’t plain straight but it has lots of embossments, making it ideal for ranged weapons/skills. Why would any player care if attacked monster is actually capable of finding any path to him?

For me, this is a kind of limiting us. Instead of deriving fun from fights, we have to come close to the target, press 1-2-3-4-5-F and gg. I guess, currently the most advanced MMO in the world should offer more types of fight.

Yes, however this is still a hotkey mmo and as such needs to have ways to prevent staying out of the reach and beating on a mob. Otherwise, you will have folks soloing mobs that they “aren’t allowed” to solo.

BTW, this is hardly the most advanced MMO in the world. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great game and there are some new things it brings to the table, but it’s not as if it’s a totally new experience (especially in the realm of combat).

I remember when i was first playing LOTRO, i was on my hunter. I was shooting a humanoid mob from on top of a rock, and it would have had to walk about 5-6 seconds around to come up to me. But what i saw kinda surprised me, as i started to pew pew the mob actually jumped up to me. In WoW, you will see mobs go straight up a cliff wall, but it was pretty funny to see something jump to me.

I’ve had monster become invulnerable randomly while fighting them, yet they were hitting me and I wasn’t moving.. <.<

I’ve had moments once or twice, where it seems we are fighting a mob of monsters and one or two become invulnerable for like 30 seconds for no apparent reason, usually its just one and its not even a named one, and then after get the tar beat out of me for awhile it stops being invulnerable.
