Please fix the trotting bug (part XXXIV)

[Matty]

for xmas, is this too much to ask for?

no swinging on an opponent who is walking away on a horse is bugged. please, please, please look at it.

This was fixed when they add SotR.

You need to actually move ahead of your opponent to hit them while moving, because the server is showing them about 2-3 steps behind where they actually are.

i've been trying this with very little success. i'll keep trying and report back

Trotting still makes you virtually invulnerable regardless of whether or not SOTR is in. Just move in right angles and you can't be hit unless your pursuer is particularly lucky. It's probably the only reason SOTR is still in, otherwise it would probably be nerfed again. I doubt this bug is fixable, though, as it's an artifact of great connection speeds.

this is what i've been noticing, SOTR or not. someone who knows how to trot-- even with 120 dex and a katana or qstaff uequipped, stepping tiles ahead of my opponent, i can't swing at all unless i'm very lucky.

[Matty]

i tested this out some more and stand by my OP. i would love for the staff to please test this out and if they see what i have been seeing, maybe something can be done.

for xmas? please?

You don't need luck, you need anticipation.

doesn't guile from street fighter say something like that after you lose?

I don't know. I thought it was an original idea. Maybe I'll be gay and bind it to a hotkey.

[tanmits]

While you're pseudo-invulnerable, trotting in right angles until your bandage timer heals you back to full? Mages don't have this problem, though, I suppose.

can you show me patch notes for "when they added sotr" or are you referring to the bug currently in place.
