I have started playing my warlock again and am just loving how I can fight things that are many levels higher then I by fearing + DOTing him. Yesterday I had a situation where I was fighting some boss for a quest through the fear + DOT and he ended up dieing inside a wall while running feared. It was one of those quests where, of course, I needed his head. I ended up waiting around for like 15 mins and fought him again but this time I didn't fear him once his life started getting low. I let him pound on me for a while until the DOTs got him.
When a mob goes through the clipping plain, or whatever it's called and dies some place where he is unaccessible or shouldn't have gone in the first place, can you call a GM and have them do something? I understand that, if I were to call a GM, there is a very strong possibility that the corpse would have vanished before they get there but do you think that is something GMs would do?
I don't want to fight for 15mins and then have the mob die in a wall out of my reach only to have to stand around 15 mins and fight it for another 15 mins.
Unrelated but I had another nutty run in with terrain and the game acting funny. I was in nagrand on my hunter leveling up my lower level boar. Was fighting the ogres in the northwest near where the last corky quest is. I was on the mountain and I saw one of the mage ogres disappear. Figured someone killed him but because of the distance I was from him, my screen just didn't show it correctly. Well I went out and started killing the other mage ogres around and all the sudden I was being hit by those bolts. Looked over and bolts were coming out of the ground. That ogre fell through the land I guess and was fighting me from under the ground. Well it wouldn't let me shoot back at him because of line of sight so I took off running but he still killed me.
The really weird part was I went ahead and resed at the GY because I didn't feel like running back to my body only to then come back near where I was. I resed up got on my flyer and lifted off. All the sudden I heard the ogre agro laugh and these bolts were coming up from out of the ground. I was no where near where I had fought the ogre but apparently here he was. Tried to fly away but those bolts are like heat seeking missile and track you as you go. Well I got hit by the first one and nothing happened. It didn't say it was resisted and it didn't show my health going down but the animation of me getting hit was going off. Bolt after bolt and nothing. It didn't even mark me as in combat. Just flew around in circles for a few mins getting hit by the bolts that weren't actually doing anything. lol
Nutty glitch. Never seen anything like it before.
