BoT tanks no longer hold aggro

[yaeger]

It seems like Bots are being treated like pets now. I play a rogue with a pally bot, a tank to hold aggro so I can backstab.

I logged on today and my Pally doesn't even try to keep aggro when I'm in melee range. I can move into melee range without attacking, and the mob will immediately turn to me and attack me.

Is this planning to be fixed later?

[Lillu]

Yes, sooner.

[yaeger]

Thank you Lillu.

yeah i noticed that too, at first i thought my caster was doing way too much agro, but then i realized it was proximity agro just like with pets.

rogues/bards/rangers who use melee bot really gonna suffer now.

[Grey]

heh I like this change unintentional or not.

Question, do the rogue/monk bots now generate zero aggro as well?

[ChaosSlayer]

no. the regardless who your bot is, the mob will instantly switch to attack you, if you step into melee range, and regardless of your actual agro.

[Lillu]

It's a hate calculation "issue" and will be fixed soon with code update.

[yaeger]

Any eta on fix?

[Lillu]

No eta, but will happen soon.
