Its just a flesh wound

[Darth Wilsonstone]

I don't know if this was a temporary glitch or a bug, but I thought I'd ask if anyone else has encountered it.

I was levelling my Jedi Consular and reached Alderaan. One of the "bonus" missions is to sabotage an imp dropship with cryo packs that you acquire from the previous mission. Now, on my way to the landing pad I got a few lag spikes. Surprising, as I hadn't gotten one for some time. IN fact, while killing a sith warrior next to the landing pad the spike got so bad that after the battle I noticed Qyzen's body several meters from where he had fallen. Still, the latency lessened and I decided to try and finish this mission. (after rezzing the Sleestak....I mean Qyzen....)

When you sabotage the ship a boss shows up to kill you. He's not a particularly tough boss. Anyway, the boss shows up, rocketing down from the sky with his Boba Fett Brand jetpack and proceeds to....stand there.

He didn't move he just stood there and let us whoop on him until he died. The latency wasn't an issue at that point....but he never fought back. He just stood there, sometime making a gesture drawing a weapon but never fired. It was like he was the Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. ("Its just a flesh wound!" "Your arms off, you stupid bastard!".....man I love that movie)

Has anyone else experienced that? It was wierd and made victory feel hollow. It may have been just a glitch so I didn't report it as a bug

I experienced something similar later in the game. I was fighting a boss and just as i was going to land the killing blow i died (at that point i had about 70% health). I was a tad annoyed but when i went to kill the boss again he didn't move at all. Didn't even try to fight back. On that occasion i was quite pleased because i can't understand how i died before! I haven't had it since and i have progressed through several planets.

My companions do that a lot. Ill take off and they just stand till they disappear. Sometimes in combat thell just stand as if on passive even if I spam attack.

Ive just assumed it was some lag glitch.

Maybe his bobba fett jet pack malfunctioned and fried his brain on the way down? He shouldn't really be stealing bobba fetts jet pack now should he....

Oh wow, so glad its not just me having this happen to me. There have been several occasions where I'm fighting an elite or a boss, hardly taking a scratch, then getting killed just as I'm delivering the killing blow. Its like they messed up coding and my killing blow turned into theirs.

happens to me all the time...most annoying thing ever

[Dithanial]

Unfortunately never had anybody just stand there and let me whoop up on them. I have had my companion fall down after a fight and only get up to walk with me, but as soon as I stop moving they lay there playing dead.

I haven't had to log out. Try summoning another companion then summoning that one again, or just dismiss and resummon.

nice, i never thought of that since at the time i only had one companion.

Very nice Algar I just shot Coke out my nose, all over my phone.

The funny thing a bout the glitch is sometimes when you summon another they will be standing in the same spot.

If you are not in combat you can wait and eventually they will come to your side or just hop on a speeder and duts them till they dismiss on their own. Then when you resummon them they will be at your side.

I think for some reason that they are flagged as still being in combat when that happens. I dont know for sure its just intuition.

Since all computers are a bit different, Poweredbymaxx may have to log to correct whatever causes this happen to him. I'm not saying that like I know a lot about PCs, but just in general. OI've had wierd lag that dissapears if I log out and back in. I'm sure they are working on it.

But the whole not fighting back thing really was strange. But there have been stranger. Am I the only one here that experienced the sand people on tattione that would attack if you came close, but once you fought back would reset? And then if you ignored them would not attack if unless you walked (or 'jogged') right up to them?
