[Bug] Explanation.
This text is taken from the Guided Arrow Skill.
- Guided Arrow
- Enhances your arrows and bolts to track your target OR seek one of its own.
Example…
I go to the Forgotton Tower & enter it.
Now I am on this hall & further down, their is an entrance which leads to a room with small pack of minions.
We havent spotted each other, but I know their are minions in that room.
I cannot see the minions & neither have they seen me.
I fire couple of guided arrows diagonal through the entrance, but it does not “seek one of its own” “Targets”.
There is the bug. It does not “Seek one of its own”.
I might update this post after more tests.
Thank you for reading this.
Inactive monsters are no targets for self-targeting skills/spells.
Activate unseen monsters by casting Decoy into said room, then GA all you want.
I have a question for you.
Where did you get this information?
“Inactive monsters are no targets for self-targeting skills/spells.”
20+ years of playing the game.
I didnt ask for how long you have been playing this game.

Experience.
Anyway, you can test it pretty easy. Cast any skill / curse doing a debuff into said room like Slow Missile or Amplify Damage. They even effect inactive monsters which means they are lit up and you can “see” where they are i.e. in a corner behind the door.
Then try a self-target skill / spell to hit them. You’ll see that the skill / spell will not lock on.
My question was “Where did you get this information?” & your answer was “Experience”.
My experience from Diablo 2 LOD Version 1.09d.
“Seek one of its own” worked very well back then. You could fire Guided Arrows inside the room & the guided arrow would “Seek one of its own”. You could hear the minion die & hear the gold/items/gems drop on the ground.
So your experience & answer to me & to this topic that I created is irrelevant.
I dont care about slow missiles nor amplify on how they impact the minions next door.
