#2833, "One thing I've noticed...re mobs and skills."


          

I don't ever remember a mob EVER missing a Dirt kick. They miss bash, they miss disarm. they miss spec skills.

But I don't ever remember a time when a mob tried to dirt kick where it didn't work. (minus when I am shielded).


Is this an oversight? Or do we all think that the Imms CHOSE it to work that way?

I'm not sure if this is why, but I recall someone saying mob stats don't exactly equal pc stats for similar race and that their stats tend to be much higher. Dirt kick does miss but I agree its pretty rare compared to pk fights. Level in mob vs pc fights matters, but is uber-mob-dex a factor?

This is probably a large part of what you see in general with skills, yes. NPCs and PCs, however, are treated differently by Dirt Kick. NPCs are highly accurate, but then again they're not smart enough to use it closer to the beginning of a tick, or on the person it most matters on, or follow it up with a disarm....

They have to take a lesson or two from the Barovia lich, he's a smart guy.
