Game Mechanics: Having trouble after patch. HELP!

[thedjnikki]

Hello, I am not sure what has changed, I am new to the server, I have been here for 2 weeks.

After the patch on Sunday, I logged in, and went to go fight in North Ro.

I attacked a giant desert beetle, and at about 30% of it's health left, it ran. But the problem is, it ran too fast! I don't have SoW, and I could not catch up with it. It just kept running around.

So anyways, I went to EC and got a SoW, and tried again. The same thing, it ran, but I kept up with it, but it kept saying i was too far away to hit it. I was right on top of it the whole time, but could not hit. I eventually grouped up with Cleric, and we used Root and killed it.

------------------

Next we went to Derv Camp 1. I pulled the first Dervish, and it hit me 12-15 times in 2 seconds, and I died. It was like it had 0 delay.

Anyways, I camped out thinking that there was just bug problems with the patch.

Is this issue being worked on? I can't really play because I am new and don't have any friends to SoW me to fight mobs.

thank you for all the hard work making the server! -Bootoo

As far as I know the patch messed up a few things and Amelinda broadcasted yesterday they are doing what they can to fix it as fast as they can.

Cleanup patch went in late last night, so the crazy attack bug is fixed, and the run speed was reduced somewhat.
