Hunter auto attacks are bugged

Wingclip macros don’t work because auto shot continues to try and auto shoot through the deadzone into melee range. even with a stopattack macro it sometimes still just sits there trying to auto shot.

I don’t remember fully but right clicking from range used to also start auto shot right? it currently doesn’t but I’m less sure that’s a bug.

I know it does on retail, but I can’t remember if that was in Vanilla, or if it started attempting to swing your melee weapon.

yes. they look like they freeze and take no action. going into melee auto attack breaks that. or wing clip normally from your bar [no macro]. seems like an issue [macro aside] with transition from ranged to melee. probably remnants of retail that is bugging out. since they removed melee completely for hunters. other than survival.

correct. right click depended on your range. if you were in melee range, you should melee auto attack. i cant say on the melee part, as i try to avoid that like the plague.

There is a giant reporting tool forced onto your screen at all times, that is where you should report this. Don’t report it though, a thousand hunters have already reported it and it’s on the known issues list.

edit: That probably comes off a little harsh, but as awesome as being in beta is it’s also a duty to use the tools they give us to actually test and report things.

It has been so long I honestly do not remember. I was stress beta testing a bit during lunch and noticed when I clicked a mob it did not auto attack with a bow. I figured maybe that was just how it was and learned to deal with it. Hoping it is an actual bug now and they will fix it.

Confirmed, I am on a hunter now and this is not working and I"m pretty sure that used to work or there was an option for it.

Edit: my bad, the other thing is a known issue

I’m almost certain in vanilla right-click never used to auto shot, it would always try to melee regardless of range. But yeah their are some weird “I’ll just stand here frozen mid-shot” type scenarios at the moment, happens to me just from using ranged macros (not even in melee or using melee abilities)
