Rescue Broke?

Zikkar · 02-01-2007, 01:30 PM

I was trying to use Scorge today and even though i had a DT selected it kept telling me invalid target no matter what i tried i couldnt get it to work. Am i doing it wrong or did they break it?

I have some trouble using it sometimes too. What I try and do is get close to my DT. I think it has a small range where you need to be near him.

Scourge worked for me every time except when trying it on range mobs, because obviously distance consideration to defensive targets. It is a whole other issue that "for 2 Attacks " is really for like .5 seconds, and than it sometimes goes right back to previous target.

Problem is, Sigil coded rescues in a stupid way.
Hitting a rescue should put us in combat, but it doesn't...we cannot rescue someone unless we are already in combat.

Now I realize that's not difficult to fix...you just "get in combat" I know. It sounds stupid, but there are times when I notice I could have saved someone from dying but I wasn't in combat for the Scourge rescue.

So, I think I'm going to create a second scourge macro key with Shadow Step before it. That way I can rescue from 25m away, and do it from out of combat.

Maybe i dotn understandhow it is supposed to work 100%. I was not more then a few meters away from my DT and i was im combat with a Spider, my groupmate had aggroand i hit scorge and it told me "invalid target".

I noticed it has a line of sight issue, if you are not facing that DT you will not resuce.

Also noticed that you need to be within 5 meters or less or very close proximity to your DT or it will not work.

Another really annoying thing is I see it often resisted. TSK TSK TSK. This sigil (bumbling fools of tank creation) is a skill that should not be resisted period.
