MOBS KEEP GETTING CLOSER< THEN WARP BACK

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.everquest (More info?)

Never come accros this problem before, but has been happening since patch
repair of 31.1 2005

Put simply, I have 2 PCs, both adequate spec, and 2 accounts, but since the
path, when I "pull a mob" with either char, on either computer, the MOB
starts to run to me but keeps "warping" back, and trying again. This scene
is visible on both machines at the same time.

I can watch as a Mob runs straight at me on one screen, and on the other
screen, I can se it from a diffeent angle doing the same.

Also I have noticed that when i type in my chat windows, there seems to be a
delay before the text I have written appears in my window.

One thing i did notie was the green dial (F11 activated thingy) was at 100%
but kept fast changing to 99.something, very very fast before constantly
switching back to 100% again, this changingin was very fast.

Sorry i cant be better description, but have never come across this before.

Any advice welcome

The symptom you are describing is usually caused by communication
problems, where your computer and the server are not agreeing on the
position of the mob, and when the server updates the position, you
computer then shows the mob warp to it's server provided position.
Communication problems can cause this type of behavior.

Go away troll, visit alt.games.everquest2 if you want to discuss EQ2.
EQ1 has a new expansion due in 2 weeks. Maybe that's why he's still playing!

I was having this issue a lot when using dial-up modem and raiding. Think
it's a comms overload / lag issue. After switching to a DSL connection,
I've never seen it since.

Exact same thing happened to me in OoT recently.

Once I set my pet on a mob, I'd lose sight of both mob and warder and 'could
not see your target' when trying to melee.

If I moved more that 4-5 steps, I'd have to summon my warder from wherever
it was he'd disappeared to.

Spells took forever to mem and cast - it was just hellacious.

People zoning in (for Druid epic 1.0, I believe) were fine for a minute or
two then were also plagued with the same problems.

We all left to petition. Servers came down shortly after (once, twice? can't
remember) and everything was ok after that. Never heard anything about my
petition...

Downed my first AC soon after, though!

Zoop
