Animating Dead is it worth?

Postby Kambal » Tue Jun 01, 2004 2:53 pm

Sorry for long post, but i was schocked :shock: .
Since when animated followers don't assist?
When it was changed? Or it's another keyword for animated followers now? Anyone has any clues? Or vampires can't assist only or there's something else? Anyone knows? I just .... :shock:

A small mesh of tightly intertwined threads lies flat on the ground.
The Gold Smuggler hops madly about the room, touching his golden nuggets.

Odd, they even took damage from the acid spit. That should have drawn them into the fight too.

This is how i do it,

#al ov1 {order 1.vampire assist $tank}
#al ov2 {order 2.vampire assist $tank}
#al ov3 {order 3.vampire assist $tank}

and the same for liches, ol1,ol2,ol3....etc

just set yourself as tank in solo mode. :)

I was under the impression that order followerS (note the s) assist kambal would work.

I don't use them very often, so, try it first on a safe mob :)
I hate signatures!

That is odd indeed. In the begining, I use to order 1.zombie, order 2.zombie etc, until I found out about order followers.

With Juju and wraith and liches, 'order followers assist nomis' seems to work fine. Only when I ask the to flee, they don't respond 100% and I have to do it a few times to get all of the to flee (is this a bug?)

Anyway, I understand how painful it is for the order followers lag, luckily for me, they reduced the time lag for prime necro's, that is very nice :)

The reason they don't always flee is because when anyone tries to flee the mud picks a direction in which they try to do it, if that direction doesn't have an exit then you fail the flee. I could be totaly wrong, since i don't know the code here, but the point is the same - sometimes mobs and players fail their flee :)
