#14953, "Gentlewalk does not seem to do anything"


          

I've been using this for a few days, testing it out on aggro mobs. So far, all of them still attack me just the same. Is there some aspect to this that I am missing? I know it's not a sure thing, but right now its effects are not visible whatsoever.

There's only so many times you will be able to succeed the gentlewalk check if you skill is not 100% and eventually it will succeed. If it tries once a pulse..

That is the mistake many first time users make with the skill.

Some mobs attack via a prog, i.e. not the "normal" way. Gentlewalk will never work on those.

If you don't have it perfected, that may also play a part.

It gives you a chance to avoid getting attacked by aggro mobs (the same kind of aggro mobs that will stop trying to attack you once you are a bit higher level than they are). It is working as expected.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
