Target is too far above (or below) you.

Seriously, get rid of this, or at least increase the allowable height variance.

In the fight in the new quest, if you're lagging at all, its almost impossible to take out those meteors before they strike if thundara isn't up at the time.

But it's not just that, it's stupid everywhere. Why not just do a check to see if the enemy can reach you? Isn't this really meant to prevent enemies from being nuked where they can't get to you? Not enemies that are 2 feet away from you but over your head?

didn't you hear? the new fight is super easy! if you cant hit the meteors you are a horrible blm and should go play hello kitty online.

just to be clear im being sarcastic. Lots of people have that problem.

good suggestion, there is Resonance but only works once.

Or just take the extra two steps...

You can't take two steps closer to something that's in the air over your head.

This "feature" is unnecessary. There's no reason to restrict casting based on height, except to the extent that the height is out of casting range. If I'm in range, I should be able to cast whether it's in front of, behind, above, or below me.

I completely agree (surprisingly) - well, only about the vertical limitations in general that is (not of any QQing about the final fight).

Distance to be able to attack/cast spells should be the same on the y-axis as it is on the x- and z- axes. Hopefully they get rid of it in 2.0!

To be clear, I don't mind a battle being hard at all. I only mind when the cause of the difficulty is a poorly designed mechanic that shouldn't exist coupled with latency issues that make it worse. And while I mentioned the BC fight, this "feature" is annoying almost everywhere, especially on certain levequests with enemies on hilly locations that force you to get up in the mob's face to be able to cast on them.

I agree in situations like these being able to attack when you can target them is something that causes problems in this fight, Aerial Attacks should be implemented in someway or form .

[Meow_Zedong]

the people complaining that they can't hit the meteors are the same people that don't realize you're supposed to go up the stairs to hit the meteors.

Or in other words, if its too high for you to reach, GO HIGHER
