Pathing in EQ or P99 has never been perfect but it seems to have gotten significantly worse in the last year or so. Pretty much every single zone in the game, if there is any sort of tunnel, walls, turns, bridges, water, hills, rocks, mobs get stuck or bounce back and forth. If you pull more than one only a couple will come if any and the others will break loose after the others die or when you sit down or stay still long enough. Basically if it isn’t a wide open outdoor zone the pathing has made many many zones difficult or unenjoyable, even unplayable in the way that is certainly intended. I feel that fixing the pathing would be the single most significant change that could help the entire player base and staff alike. Pulling mobs would be smoother resulting in less petitions on raiding and grouping Encounters as a whole. Who has played in the last 6 months and not had an issue with pathing Atleast once in each and every session, whether it be mob getting stuck, going through walls, falling through floors, warping, etc? For me a year ago - these issues were rare occurrences and not frequently to daily occurrences in almost every zone... what has happened?
Truthfully I have a hard time remembering exactly how pathing was in classic. I know currently Guk is a mess with all the healing going on through walls, but I believe that was classic as well.
