NPC Ranged fighters...

Post by marct »

1) Why do NPC ranged fighters have an infinite attack range?
This was a question posted to the Q&A. I just wanted to clarify that by my own experience, and thorough testing this is not true.

The range in my testing for an NPC ranged fighter is 80m. I have seen it goes as far as 82m. If I go beyond this they run to get in range with me and then fire again. Usually once around 75m they stop and take aim on me again.

Any experiences that confirm or blow my theory apart would be nice.

BTW: I am not a ranger, but was wondering if anyone has any ranged weapon that can hit from beyond 50m.

Noin.

actually the range for an npc range figther is more like 125 meters or more, the aggro range isn't that far for bandits HOWEVER if you get them in range they'll smoke you np and keep hititng you while you run away

i submitted a ticket one time about the bandits right next to the kami port in knoll of dissent hitting me when i was in hidden source and pretty far in too, cliff raiders i think is their name

as for the limit for our range i don't know for sure but i think 50 is the max we can get, i'll ask my friend who does range

it's kinda unfair that the npc's can hit us so far away and have us mostly dead by the time we're even remotely close to them

Guess you can say im a pretty good ranger, i've built various launchers and the max i could get on q110 was 60m if i put max range mats on it
as for NPC ranged fighters the good thing is you can jump in the water and they wont attack you anymore, but if i was shooting you, i could shoot you in the water also so think of that as a plus
