Now THIS makes me angry...

[mazzy187]

Okay, I've read some threads about people being upset over the fact that they get no loots too many times in a row. Or that the lag is responsible for countless misfires... but I have never seen this.

I was hunting the other day enroute to Nymphtown because some noob couldn't get there himself. I said "sure thing, but I'm going to hunt on the way". As you can see by the pics, I was a bit purturbed when I was killing things only to see them jump back to life, or remain dead, but have some remaining life bar. I was unable to interact (ie- shoot more, loot corpse) these mobs any further. I submitted a case to support but they told me unless there was a way to prove what the loot was, I was out of luck... This really sucks... It happened to me at least 5 times that night...

Anyways, check out the screenies...

Has anyone else had this happen to them so many times in one night? I've had it happen a few times before, but dismissed it. Never 5 times in one night... that's assinine... I want my ammo back at least...

I have heard of this happening... I empathize
In the future, now that we know what MA will say via support, if that happens on one mob in a certain area do not hunt anymore in that particular area for several hours...
Now we know... thx for sharing

The way to get around that is to run till the mob is off screen. Turn around and run back. When you get back on screen it is blue and can be looted. The only problem with this is sometimes they will disappear before you get back. But usually you can make it.

Its a pain in the ass. But it works. For things like Berry young i dont bother. But if its something bigger i will go through the trouble.

I didn't know that either... that's great to know. I eventually just gave up alltogether for the night... but it wasn't just one mob, I think it was a trax, maffoid, bery, mollusk, and maybe another maffoid... that night...

Like Suicide said , go out of that mobs screen and enter right back and it will turn blue and you can loot it or make a relog , same effect It's just like with the invisible mobs lol but time loss to avoid this is still annoying

I've only had this happen about 5 times but it, also, was all in one hunt and only in about 10 minutes. I was looting them by re-logging but oviously, that wasn't too fun to do every other mob so I just quit for the day. It was on the mobs outside of Port Atlantis so it's not like this is an area error... but somehow the servers just get bugged to hell from time to time.

yup, happened to me just last night. It's been a long time since I have been ingame that I also forgot I couldnt loot mobs in shallow water. Any hints on that one attal?
