The rare spawn Huolon on Timeless Isle semi-frequently spawns in a manner that is entirely unattackable due to a bug that constantly tells me I’m out of range. My spells indicate that I am in range, and I’m in places/ranges where I typically can attack/aggro the mob. Nothing appears unusual, or different about the spawn until someone attempts to attack, and is unsuccessful.
This issue has been ongoing for several years.
Yep just happened to me
This can happen with any of the cloud serpents on the timeless isle. I’ve seen it on 2 characters where one saw it hovering nearby (but “out of range”) while the other wasn’t seeing it at all. Very strange anomaly.
So the model is potentially disconected from the actual object of the mob. I had thought something like this might have been the case, and tried to track a ways in front of, and behind the Huolon I could see to try and hit it anyways if I got lucky spamming abilities. Sadly, no dice the couple times I tried this. Might still work other times depending on how disconnected/separated they are, but maybe there isn’t even an object, and the model is a misfire spawn of some kind.
Once again Blizzard simply does not care at all about their bugs. If you don’t get it it’s your fault. For something like Huolon where a hunter might want to train it, by the time you reload your game (which does fix it) it doesn’t get close enough to the ground again to tame. It’s incredibly annoying and vexing. But Blizzard doesn’t care about its customers. They stopped doing that a long time ago. If they cared after years they would have fixed some of these bugs. There are so many bugs that just keep going on and on. Maybe once Microsoft takes over we will have a company that has a modicum of caring. As it is Blizzard doesn’t fix bugs, doesn’t really offer support, and insults you every single time by pretending its your fault using copy paste responses. They are the company of “I’m sorry” and they most certainly are sorry.
If you have a pet class, put a ranged pet on it. Confirmed working.
Guess what? still happening.
Still happening on live servers, would love a bug fix with all the attention on Pandaria these days.
Blizz: best i can do is a hyperspawn nerf
It’s still happening as of today. They’re not going to allocate resources to fix it
