I spoke with a GM about 30 minutes ago and they know about it and they are working on it.

Basicly when Feign Death happens you should shead all agro / pc pets but that is not happening right now. So get those pets all on one hunter and beat him up Smiley: smile Warlock pets included.

there's always been a chance of FD being resisted, especially when aggro is across multiple mobs - is the 'resist' being flashed up or is it a true bug? I haven't had any issues myself.

It is a True bug as it sheds no agro at all and the Resist never comes up over my screen. (PvE) Then on PvP when I Feign Death the other hunters pets leave me and return to their Player but that is not happen at all, ever, and never. So I put the ticket in and the GM confirmed that there is a problem with the FD at this time and they are working on it. I doubt Hunters will see a fix before Next Tuesday.

Apparently its a problem with the aggro drop pulse not going off as soon as you cast the spell. So basically if you FD and then walk/shoot straight away again you won't get the aggro dump, if you lay on the ground for a second or two however you should have the aggro drop normally.

Its annoying i know, but at least there's a way to work round it at the moment.

They made it more realistic. Shame it was unintentional.

It doesn't bug every time it's used.

You expect a videogame with walking cows and sorcerers to be realistic?

I hope they fix it soon and not several months later, as its really annoying.

Hummm I tried this last night and I stayed in FD (with no Resist) for 10 seconds last night (my pet on passive) and the PvE mob keep beating on me. In PvP last night I FD for 5-10 seconds to try this and it was not working for me, maybe I'm just horribly unlucky.

Thanks for the info.

I think what this is sounding like is FD gone wrong.

Usually if FD is resisted your body doesnt even lay down on the groud, you stay standing and get pummled.

If it is not resisted your body lays on the ground and you loose all aggro.

So what you guys are saying, Is your body lays down on the ground and the mobs are still hitting you? AH MA GHAD! :)

At least let me die standing.

The aggro dump doesn't happen until the death animation is complete. Just don't get up immediatly and it should work.

At least they didn't do anything completly unrealistic like bring in spaceships or anything.....

Maybe realistic wa the wrong word. Logical maybe?
