Possible Ranging Bug?


Psx0

Recommended Posts

This has been happening alot to me lately, even with melee. I'll eat some food then click attack, and the character will move one square in a random direction before he starts swinging. This gets very annoying in single combat zones. At the firegiants I had well over 8 half killed giants sitting around because each time I ate another one would attack me.

i find its affected by speed of clicks as well and it does happen for both mage and range at blues and black demons in tav dungeon

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

if u right click pause for a sec then attack its fine.

 

 

 

but if u do it quickly u run out then attack

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

its gettin real deadly to train in tav dungeon.

Yes, this has happened to me as well and I must say I thought it only occured since Monday the 23rd. I've been hallying Hellhounds and keep running up to them, I've done two Turoth assignment ~290 kills and I keep running up to them even if I'm just two squares away, sometimes 3 or 4 times in a row.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I sure hope this is a bug and not some hidden update :evil:

i think it is an update to defeat macroers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why should 99.9999999 % of us good gmaers have to deal with this aggravation becasue of a few pixel lovers that might be a cheater cheater pumpkin eater? You already hose us with a stupid random event every 2 minutes, why do this? It's overkill and very aggravating, making runescape look like a bug burdened second rate game that many of its detractors already say it is.

 

 

 

Shame on jagex for punishing legitimate players because they arent smart enough to stop the small number of cheaters any other way.

this has been happening to me everywhere

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

one example is dust devils, i'll throw a dart and run to the safe spot, then sit there and wait for it to get into position, when it there i click attack my char runs out 1 space for no reason and gets hit

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i got a 93 ranged and an 86 ranged char, i dont ever recall this in the past

It's good to see that I'm not the only one noticing this. I got hit a 30 and 27 by a red dragon last night because my guy decides to walk right into the dragons breath.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There's another topic on this here:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Are RANGERS walking to their doom? (?BUG?)/JAGEX ANSWERS!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and on the Jagex forums under.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RuneScape Forums - Recent Updates - Ranging Problem Since Update.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was up to 26 pages last night. Even the #2 ranger in Runescape High Scores even complained that this is something he has not seen until recently.

i noticed the bug too when using my dragon hally. Places that were obvious safe spots before now take three and four trys before my caharcter will actually stay there and fight. I realize that there are places where you actually cant range/mage/hally thru, but places that i know you can do not seem to be working quite as well anymore.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

maybe jagex is trying to ween the rs community off of safe spots?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:twisted:

being a rnager or mage you pay a high premium for the privledge of not getting hit and using safespots in exchange for haveing to buy or fletch or buy or runecraft your ammunition.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now we don't have that advantage and it takes me twice as long to finish an assignment now because im pulling my hair out trying to get my character to start shooting my enemy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

People that want to get mage or range levels easy will high alc/use the mage mini game or buy a cannon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All this is doing is aggravating legit members who pay jagex 5$ a month.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Runescape used to be relaxing, now it just annoys me with little stupid tweaks like this.

the server is strangely laggy

CANE

 

Just to be different.

 

Think about it. A freaking Dragon Cane with a Dragonstone gem.

The spec will simply your character equiping a glove and beachslapping the enemy, who will break down and do the Cry emote for 10 seconds straight.

I believe it's lag. When you right click and then click "Attack", the lag will make you click the spot (yellow click) before the Attack option (red click). Thus you'll move up and attack.
no its not lag. but yea i was at the blue dragons for a few days in yanille and i got so aggrivated every time i went to shoot, my guy ran at the dragon and got hit. im pretty sure it was never like that.

Happened to me during a 200k stake at duel arena.. Some ranger snared me so I pull out sara strike.. I cast once.. and every other time it doesn't cast and says "A magic force stops you from moving" . Is that considered bug abuse:P?
