Prior to today they worked fine, but tonight I have died over and over as they stand around yawning etc. I have tried them on fight, guard etc.. it happens randomly and is major league annoying.

Did you check to see if they ran out of energy?
Heroes have a tendency to rampantly cast until they're empty.

Nov 25, 2006, 02:45 AM // 02:45

not just monks, all heros have been doing this.

i sat and lost a mish when my heros wouldnt do a damned thing.

Chop were they on avoid battle? Cause they wont' fight if they are, they should still heal though.

i had the same bug. Koss was on "agressive", but while fighting a mob he was standing there /bored for about 5 mins?

I noticed my Talkhora sitting around in Hero Battles, with full energy, while she was spiked. I was not pleased.

TheGuildWarsPenguin · Nov 25, 2006, 05:31 AM // 05:31

Yeah, in Hero battles, Tahlkhora had full energy, set on avoid battle, and Master of whispers had like 25% health, all 3 heroes standing on the center shrine, and she did nothing.

I noticed this aswell tonight while questing with my Dervish. Dunkoro just stood there while I got tuned...

Sometimes your heroes will get stuck behind one of the res shrine NPCs (so will you, but your computer doesn't think so). The result is this:
You are able to walk around the map, but will not aggro enemies. Your heroes will sit at the res shrine, because that's where you really are. This has only happened to me a few times.

If that is not the case (ie if they follow you past the res shrine) then I guess they're retarted.

VGJustice · Nov 25, 2006, 08:23 AM // 08:23

I remember a bug where the Heroes would get stuck and wouldn't use any skills at all, but Henchmen would be unaffected. This bug may be back with a vengence.

Abit of topic,

i also do notice sometimes dun rez even when the battle is over

sometimes u wan to save yr signet, but the monk henche dun rez the dead heros/other henche

BowLad21 · Nov 25, 2006, 02:04 PM // 14:04

I noticed one of my heroes Refused to ressurect me until I flagged them near a monk henchmen, after ressing the monk, they came over and remebered me.

Jongo River · Nov 25, 2006, 08:49 PM // 20:49

I'll admit that I've never really played monk, so I'm useless at monk builds and my monk heroes are therefore equally useless, but I'm sure monk AI is not what it was, because henchmen have also been taking forever to heal/resurrect me. I've gone out with 3 monks (2 heroes/1 hench or vica versa) and still not been healed well.

Turbobusa · Nov 25, 2006, 10:06 PM // 22:06

happened to me, they stopped attacking, refused to cast anything, while some kournans (!! -_-) were attacking them

Veron · Nov 27, 2006, 01:38 AM // 01:38

Maybe they're kiting? Sometimes they'll kite in circles while everyone else dies.

TalonTheCat · Nov 27, 2006, 03:15 AM // 03:15

I play a monk 98% of the time, so my hero monks are solid builds. Yesterday one of them, during a PUG mission - yawned. If she could have twiddled her thumbs she probably would have. I thought I was just seeing things - but looks not.

twicky_kid · Nov 28, 2006, 06:36 AM // 06:36

Many times I'm controlling the monk AI anyways so not much of a difference for me. I notice they have a small delay between casting which sometimes kills you.

You should set you monks to "guard" not "run." If they are running they will not heal you even when they follow. Best thing to do is control the monk yourself. You don't have to worry about target just tell him to use what skills when.

This is my normal w/o any bugs going on. There is most likely a bug but with my play style I really have not noticed it.

Cheeva B · Nov 28, 2006, 09:10 PM // 21:10

These "heroes" also absolutely WILL NOT use signet of devotion. They'll be completely out of energy and wait for their energy to come back up before they'll cast anything other than sig of devotion. Its a pain to watch the hench die because a monk wont use the skills given him.

pug_ster · Nov 28, 2006, 10:59 PM // 22:59

I'm just curious, did it happen to you when you flag your char? Even when you flag your char on the exact same spot where you are getting hammered? Sometimes I notice that they won't attack, thus they won't heal, if you don't attack (ie, casting a spell).

Cheeva B · Nov 29, 2006, 03:55 AM // 03:55

I dont have problems with mine attacking but when you command them, they wont do anything until they get to the spot you designate. Thats put out in command training.
