Gah, stuck again

[Kompressor]

if yer sick n tired of gettin stuck in this place or that raise yer hand..

I've been gettin fed up with the gayness of some areas of pok in which IE:

Im banking some items in the main bank. I put pp or gp into bank, and bla bla bla.. I try to turn around, and i'm stuck, cant move, cant gate, coz it told me that I need to be standing. I had my duo partner, a mage coh me.


Another situation that same day..


a necro guildie was tellin me this story in officer channel.. ( all yesterday)

Her friends were on a boat goin from td or some place like that, dont recall the name really, but they were all stuck in the world. In other words, the game thought they were on the boat, but they were actually stuck "underwater".. they called a mage there to coh, but teh mage got stuck.. they called a druid there to port out, but teh druid got stuck.. they didnt bother calling a wizzie.

I made the suggestion to /duel and corpse summon. Somehow my necro friend didnt get stuck and was able to "group" with those peeps, and summon their corpses to entrance. Another bug was after the mage was corpse summoned, he couldnt loot his body, so she had to summon his corpse again lol, after second summon, he was able to loot. Thanks SOE for makin us buy 5 suicide coffins !! :)

Boat gnomes, hell... I want my kinfolk to act as "get me out of a random piece of grass" gnomes.

[Fizzleplink]

Yes... I realize this would technically make them "garden gnomes" and "yard gnomes."

[Zikbus Wickbus]

i want a "get out of the rocks into the hole enterance" gnome cause my gnome died getting stuck!

After last patch I was scooting along with DMF and hit an invisible limb on a tree (we have all ran into them in PoK before) and my computer froze up, could not do anything, just sitting there. Had to Task Manager out of eQ and restart system :( It only seems to be getting worse with each patch.........

my puter froze twice in the same fashion yesterday heh

[Schaeffer]

Yeah it does seem to be getting worse but the good news is the GM's seem to be very responsive and actually online lately. I had one leave an event that they were rnning to come rescue me. As long as you ask them nicely they seem to be more than happy to lend a hand. I guess they enjoy actually being useful for once.

Things that seem to work more often then not, if you don't have lev on when you get stuck, leving yourself often helps. If you can stand up Levant works alot too. One thing I did after getting stuck one too many times in Swamp of No Hope, was to have a mob chase me through the whole zone and whenever i got stuck in a tree, they'd knock me out, lol.

It is getting worse...I got stuck in a doorway...no trees

[Menox A'Dhil]

Not really about the collision thing but more about the "Falling through the world" thing. My guild killed Solusk Ro the other day. When he died the Planar Projection promptly fell through the trap door. None of us got flags and of course the GMs wouldn't pop the PP or give us flags so we petitioned. Our guild leader got an email stating that a GM would be present on the next kill. The kicker is that the GM also mentioned in his email that the last patch fixed most of the collision issues. LMFAO. BTW, the GM was present 3 days later when we killed Sol Ro again and was kind enough to summon the PP when it fell through the floor again.

[Kompressor]

COOL. heh, there has been a few instances where I was zonin through dagnors caulron from BB.. and it was like I jumped off a skyscraper and was falling, falling falling.. during the "falling" episode, I memmed gate and gated out of it.. suffice to say, if that had beena melee, woulda been a long wait.

[Fizzleplink]

So far, just since the last patch, I have been attacked by:
- Rocks.
- Random flags in Kael Arena and Wayfarer Camps.
- Occasional blades of grass.
- Trees
- Doors
- Left-behind mounts.
- Nexus stone, which I was then unable to click on (every click got... ME!)
- Walls
- An Iksar golem in Veksar. He couldn't hit me, I could cast on him. He moved, I moved. I Feigned, I got dragged. This made for a very unique fight.
- Ramp in Veksar.
- The deck outside the hobbit bank in PoK. It tried to eat me. Twice.

[Aryse Andenter]

At first when I saw people standing up to their chests in the ground or the floor, I thought it was funny and novel and I took SSs. After I had five from the last two days I decided it was common and boring.

It's tough being a gnome...

[Death's Servent]

I got stuck in the gfay spires, lifted off the ground and dropped from the top. Did it repeatly.

I am getting the same thing, only seems to happen in PoK so far.......Crazy thing is its just freezes, I can't even kill it with task manager. I end up just logging off the windows user account, then relog in. All this seems to be since dx9.X, before that I never had stability issues.

[cumadieaneu]

uhm ok middle of GD and bam like I ran into a wall said I fell and took 4k dmg and I only have 1600hp and died no DMF no skeletal pet no nothing just walking along and BAM DEAD!!! as far as the PoK invisible branch I hit it to wierd how it shows up in middle of the zone where no trees is around except for one about t15 feet from where I was. got stuck, walking through PoK ground up to my chest, DE necro and could not see anyone or anything. Tried to gate and tried DMF nothing helped its that stupid DX9 and last patch and its getting worse also getting client crashes for no apparent reason as well.


would also like some recommendations on some decent armor for my necro, if anyone wants to know what I have meet me in Game at /j serverwide:necrotalk
and I'll link you my stuff once i get home from work.

but till then will continue posting here from work see you all soon.

[Darkowen]

Ok, another patch wednesday and yes.....it gets worse :blink: Patch notes say they have opened up the Plane Of Knowledge to all users (said to users who have not purchased the expansion), wonder if this is the programming trouble ??

[cikiz]

a week ago while i was walking in DL BOOM i started falling and then like a minute later i get hit for 31k hp but and i only have 867

[Kompressor]

lol... zoned into PoT and I was falling, like when u have a dream and you're falling kind of falling through zones.. I was like wtf.. memmed gate and to my surprise it went off and sent me to bind.. bugs like this annoys the hell out of me : /

[aurelias]

If these coders wipe their ass half as good as they code, they must make for some smelly roommates. Its happening to me at least twice a day. The bitch for me is having a mob I just slaughtered fall throught the floor and leaving me no loot to lewt. Ass-fucked jobbers stop visiting porn sites and code us some real patches.

Bitches!!

On things that fall through the floor, type /target A_undead_dimwit (a undead dimwit being the name) and then /loot.

Should be able to loot it then.

[Darkowen]

Aye nice info there!

I use the command /trar a all the time, followed by /loot. I have found unless its a named mob this works everytime.....if named just type /tar XXX (XXX being the specific name) and bingo its your target :P

I use it all the time in Ldon's where you have to loot those darn tonado looking mobs :blink: sorry can't recall the correct name of them.........those things are almost impossible to target for me, even when they are laying in plain view in front of you....

[Nigyl]

Note, BTW, that if your pet was attacking the mob that just died, it will have the mob's corpse targeted. So you can just /assist Boner and then /loot.

[Aryse Andenter]

I have found the /target and /loot doesn't work for me if the mob fell through the ground, one of two things happen to me:

1) I get a 'too far to loot' message, even when my loc/track corpse spells show me I am standing directly over the corpse

2) I get a 'someone else is looting' message - and I am alone in the zone. Yup - did /who, 1 player in the zone, and still couldn't loot. Guess my imaginary friend was greedy that day.


I use /loot all the time lately since I've been finding it a lot harder to click on corpses, especially in LDoNs, but I've had no luck with it when the corpse fell through the floor.

[seever]

:ph34r: I always find that if you put /tell Satan, and ask really nicely for the corpse or your MOB back that you can get it. Usually it costs a soul or two.

[Kompressor]

heh, 2 more pok freezes last night, "after last patch, there shouldnt be issues with collision" heh.. did hedge walk the other day, and I had to /rewind like 10 times lol

:/
