Anyone else experience the glitch with sprinters?

I've noticed that when a mob spawns, they have this odd tendency to just sprint off in some random direction. When they reach a certain distance they do an about face and sprint back until they reach their origin point, then repeat.. its maddening!

When it's happening, the miss occurrence goes thru the roof, so I'm running after each beastie like a maniac, *woosh* *wooshing* after them trying to either kill them or at least get their attention so they stop running around.  Angry

Yup noticed it in kobold assault, it has been forever since I was a ranger. I remember I used to be able to pick off everyone. I would target these dick bags and just shoot into thin air, no die roll or anything. I even made sure to have my reticule on them and red. No dice, literally.
  

Fuck Off, That is all

i found main problém of agroing huge quantities of mobs was connected to wearing eidolon necklace - the eidolon shadow can agro almost all mobs around pyramid when it spwns. it looks like his agro area is damn huge. no problém when i switched to other neckie

mob AI is still jacked.  sprint away and do an about face.  run off ledges and bridges. 

you want real comedy go to Garl's Tomb and stand at one end of the bridge and watch the trogs run/fall/respawn in an infinite loop like some GIF posted on the vault.

This happened to me in Power Play. Trash kept falling into the water and respawning.

ok, that's too much a bait. I'll bite.

here is a real lemming ( Greenland subspecies ) in it's real environment...



For another one you can check my avatar.

The film where your sequence came from was faking the Lemming behavior... The had gathered lemmings and were herding them all to the water.
I know that lemmings are now tagged as brainless stupid animals that just run to their death... but really sheeps also do that when herded over a cliff by a wolfpack...
( hell any herd animal will do it with the help of a wolfpack ).

Was an old Disney Film called White Wilderness... when I found out they had killed all those animals I was crushed as a child...  that film is why everythnig now has that "no animals were harmed in the making of this [insert format]"

That's why I did bite...
My lemming was still alive when we left the area. and the only lemming that died in my presence is shown in my avatar.
I took no part in it's death... It was all natural law... I could have been 5000Km away it would have been the same result
( well except that I wouldn't have been able to take a picture of the hermine with the lemming in her jaws
[and no it's not the same lemming, both pictures were taken 100km apart ] )

This is turbine's subtle attempt to balanced ranged classes, since they overbuffed melee.
