Thrall will no longer attack. I have tried giving him different weapons. Logging out and back in. Going to different areas. Nothing works. Not the first time I have had this issue. Extremely frustrating especially when they decide to stop attacking at the Temple of Frost…
Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:
This happens to me also with my captains. I usaly leave them back at base for an hour while running with another and they go back to fighting again afterwards. It seams like also in some places they just go crazy with the amount of targets and run off to try and fight something that is around the corner only to port back to you and just stand there
Same behavior here… i almost got one shot by the great one tiger because of it… my thrall ran away trying to kill a… rhino that was near by… aggroed it… teleported back to me and the tiger… didn’t fought the tiger… yiha happy fight… hopefully he was still on follow so i just ran away and he teleported to me… but hell that was annoying…
so i’m sorry but after 10 days on the game, with bugs every couple minutes… i think i’ll get myself a steam refund… too bad it was looking promising…
In my opinion, this is a game breaking bug that has no business being in a game that is so dependent upon combat for its gameplay. This bug makes it clear that this game was not ready for release, and yet here we are, a year after release. At present, this game is can only be described as “technically playable”, but too many things simply don’t work with any consistency or are broken.
Come on, FunCom, get it together. This bug has no business being in a core mechanic of the game.
@ghettorogue, I have localized one source of the problem, but not the main issue. I was in the UC with light armor and a Bandit Leader thrall. Unfortunately, all my aloe extract was gone, so fast heals were not available, just roast haunch.
He was taking 75% of my health per hit, so hit/dodge/hit/dodge was my only available tactic. The thrall was attacking, but not holding agro very often. He was stun-resistant, so I was relegated to a single strong attack each time.
Finally, I was low on stamina when I was at 25% health and had to kite him a while to heal up. I was near full health when the thrall lost interest. He did not attack for the rest of the fight.
There seems to be a timer on thrall agro related to damage to me or by me that is a bit (?) too short, and something else after dropping agro preventing him from re-entering an aggressive mode.
