Game Mechanics: Wizards in LGuk casting through walls

[aresprophet]

Wizard frogs in LGuk are casting through walls. Yes, they're beginning casts IN LOS and finishing them OUT OF LOS. But they are also beginning casts OUT OF LOS and finishing them OUT OF LOS. This basically means that a wizard mob, once attacked, has free reign to cast on his attacker without regard to walls. This has been going on ever since the most recent patch which modified spells cast during LOS to be finished out of LOS; in LGuk at least it is clearly not just limited to that condition.

It's not just limited to targeted AOE spells; single target nukes and roots are being cast without any regard to LOS limitations. As you might imagine, this makes pulling casters in LGuk vastly more difficult than it should be.

So does this mean that Lguk has their walls removed or something? how are they agroing through the the walls to make it so they start casting out of LOS?

1. Agro.
2. Get out of los.
3. Wizard starts casting out of los.
4. Wizard finishes casting out of los and casts again.
5. Et Cetera.

Havnt tried it myself or anything, but that should answer your question about the op. Say hi to your bro.

HELP GUYS ITS NOT WORKING.

Obviously this isn't happening EVERY time, so you need to spend some time researching the issue. What spells are the mobs casting that is hitting you through walls? Describe what zone and the area it happened at, where you were standing, where the mob was standing.

Yes this information might not be easy to get, but you're going to have to have it happen to you a few times to get more information about the problem. The developers don't have time to research the problem, we have a lot of things to do and the players need to take it upon themselves to provide this information.

I feel like I have to post this on every other bug report.

As faras I've seen, over the course of more than a hundred pulls of caster mobs in LGuk since the patch, it is happening every time.

so you need to spend some time researching the issue. What spells are the mobs casting that is hitting you through walls?

Any spell they are capable of casting. Single-target nukes (magic, fire, ice based), targeted AOE nukes (magic based), roots.

Describe what zone

Lower Guk

and the area it happened at

Everywhere I've fought a caster mob in LGuk dead side

where you were standing

Out of line of sight of the caster mob

where the mob was standing

On the opposite side of a wall or multiple walls

Yes this information might not be easy to get

It is if you pull even a single mob in LGuk and get out of line of sight. Seeing it happen on every single pull only makes it more obvious

but you're going to have to have it happen to you a few times to get more information about the problem

I and anyone who's fought casters in Lower Guk have been doing this since the patch

I understand you're busy and that bugs can be pretty obscure and hard to pin down, but the occurence of this bug is extremely obvious and makes fighting casters in Lower Guk excessively dangerous and frustrating. This one doesn't require more than 30 seconds to confirm, and it occurs the same way every time.
