However, we would like to add more liveliness to monsters as you have been suggesting.
    So basically dumb people who couldn't play without just spamming attacks without looking at the situation removed something that was a good feature.. lovely

    It would be good if you could have them follow but keep a distance?
    It was a great feature that I'd love to see back in some form, even if it has to be worked on for those less well.. yeah...

    This is a very poor idea that was thrown around way too often before the curious enemies were taken out. AOE abilities are a large part of a lot of classes and it was idiotic to have 7 enemies right up your butt preventing you from playing efficiently and sometimes outright causing you to die during leves. It was especially bad for MRD because Steadfast affecting a lot of their moves changing their AOE. It was a gigantic pain in the ass no matter if you were a good or poor player.
