Not A Bug Strange Paragon Juka Lord Behavior

[kalel83]

It seems if a Paragon Juka Lord gets attacked to the point it will flee, but then is able to heal itself it will continue fleeing with full health.
Then it gets stuck fleeing as long as you attack it, and will continue healing itself and fleeing all the while having more than 50% health.
Basically a Paragon Juka Lord with 100% health permanently fleeing. Just imagine how that sucks to try to kill.

Reporting this as a bug as I would suspect mobs fleeing from you should only happen when they are on low health.


I don't know if this is related, but I usually notice this when a Paragon Juka Lord was fighting the Meer, starts fleeing and then sometime later I attack it.
Also it happenes rarely, not every time I am attacking a Paragon Juka Lord.

I think what you are seeing the Archer mechanic. It gets out of melee range and shoots you. Similar to ratmen archers except ratmen don't try to keep the distance. If this isn't accurate that'd be a great fix. Basically, have to corner the paragons or run away like brave sir Robin.

Is it just Juka Lords or all fleeing creatures? Once they regain health they shouldn't flee anymore. However like @The Silvertiger pointed out, the archers will try to distance themselves from melee. (makes sense)

Just Paragon Juka Lords, not all the time with them.
Hmm I thought the Juka Lords would melee me usually when forced to and this was somehow a unique other thing happening rarely. As after this happened I tried to reproduce it and the Paragon Juka Lord died wish some ease.
Just saw it on Paragon Juka Lords. I had to chase one without killing it as it healed itself so quickly, to out of bounds then it ported back to the spawn area by itself to never be seen again.

Can close this and I will get OBS ready. If I see it again I will record it and report back. Thank you!
