Guild Wars 2

not sure if its intentional but i noticed erratic behaviour. i attack a melee mob but instead of running to me, half the time it just runs away ( mostly into other mobs/packs) for a good few sec then it comes towards me, attacks me 2-3 times and does it again. heck one time i had a melee mob just running around the entire area pulling every mob he came across without ever hitting me once.

is this intentional or is the AI broken ?
its frustrating to clump up the mobs, drop your aoe on them and they just scatter like you would normally suspect only players do when a boss drops a bomb on them.

I believe its always been that way, the AI on Bitterfrost has been improved. They’re not the simple Svanir of Frostgorge. For years, many players complained GW2 AI in Core Maps is too simple and boring. The new behavior makes fights a bit more challenging, because now you need to immoblize, cripple, or chill the foe to keep them in your aoe attacks. Now, the AI will actually try to avoid your attacks xD.
