Walking mode and monster aggro

[Enfarious]

Most of the stuff there is sight, trees are sound, not true sound. The latency issues do lead to some of those problems with the servers thinking that even if your walking your running, it's because your position changes suddenly, when your client sends pos1, pos2, po3, pos4... if pos3 gets dropped due to latency you've just moved at run speed. Another thing, if your in a party the trees link, they shouldn't but they will. Get knocked back you just ran. There's a path though that solo you can walk w/o any but spriggan aggro and brings you up behind the wolves so you can grab the box before they aggro. G/L

Also, if you're an archer/bard, remember that having a song active means that you're belting stuff out at the top of your lungs. Sound mobs are going to be highly amused.

If your keyboard is set up for chat only format use number pad to the right>>> "Num Lock" + 1 = walking mode...

Some of this isn't true...

Trees originally linked but they patched that out after 2 weeks. Never seen them link with each other either. Knockback also doesn't count as running. I've fought the boar NM more than enough times to know that definitely isn't true.

Never seen enemies aggro to songs, as well. Would have noticed it by now if they did >.>

Didn't know they fixed the trees, I seem to remember them linking with wolves not all that long ago, but I could be wrong. The knock back isn't an issue if you aren't moving when it happens, that's why fighting Buata is safeish, if you get knocked back while walking is when the problem arises, like if a frog snatches you.

Dzemael Darkhold. Ghosts aggro while swiftsong is up, but only against the poor bard. Can otherwise walk straight past them no problems.

As of last Saturday they can still link if you're in party. Went to farm key stones with couple of friends between fights. hit a wolf had 2 more + a tree link. it's not always but it does happen.

I also thing the song aggro was kinda a joke lol... just somthing ironic about tip toe really carefully past these mobs but you can make as much noise with songs thunder magic etc and they cant hear you....

That's really weird then lol, I have played BRD around Turning leaf and cast swiftsong whenever we are moving no matter what is around and have never died. Maybe it's a bug that ghosts aggro.
