Discussion - What zone has the worst pathing? (1 Viewer)

[lazershoes]

Recently went to Tempest Temple, and reading allakhazam they said the pathing was abysmal. I didn't quite understand just how bad until I wiped my team 2x. It's doable, yes, but fun, no not really. Another awful one is the spider room in Bloodmoon Keep.

What zones do you absolutely hate for catastrophic mob pathing?

 

[B_I_G__D_A_D_D_Y]

I always enjoyed the maze in Velk's Laboratory.

the frozen shadow zone in the tov expansion had my toons going all over.. wiped a few times And never went back lol

 

[Redmonkey]

Some of the LDON's, The Underquarry, Resplendent Temple or any zone that has swirling paths that go up or down where mobs take short cuts to get you

 

[Szazor]

Caverns of Endless Song gets my vote. This zone was so bad the trauma had erased it from memory. I had to go and look it up on Allah to remember the name.

 

[Sdeqguy24]

Agree with Szazor......Caverns of Endless Song is the worst

 

[orbitz]

Agree, Caverns was terrible.

I am never successful running LDoN with the way pathing is. I suppose because it's instanced? But it works mainly until there is uneven ground

Mobs in old Griegs End are spread out enough it's never caused me any problems, but the pathing is atrocious (And incredibly abusable).

Plane of Innovation. I defy you to pull a PL train there with any sort of efficiency.

firefall pass is terrrrrrible

TOFS in TOV sucked cause of the ice in the center room on floor 1, moving around there was a pain if you didnt have a pet class to try and pet pull.

PoI is pretty awful for pulling PL trains, I've avoided that zone because of that reason.

MG last night I pulled a blob in the metal slime room from the top of the ramp and he warped to the second or third floor and brought friends that proceeded to warp on me.

Dulak back in the day you could strafe near a spot by the entrance and force mobs to run back and forth, was a good headshot spot back before vinelash.

I forget exactly where it was, I think it was lost gnomes instance but I used to run the barrier of the wall and my train of drachnids would warp behind me so it was pretty easy to gather them all up.

I seem to remember a similar warping bug in luclin where if i could sick my pet on something, it aggroed and if I sat against a wall the mob would warp to me and avoid multi pulls... this was back in the day when pets didn't have their own aggroe like today.

Ah, another fellow masochist as me.

I also enjoy the Velk's ToV.

Classic PAW.

 

[Canddyman]

Black burrow. Made kiting possible on cleric but it was still horrible and caused a lot of trains.

The worst zone for pathing is the hallway zone. I cannot get to the master bedroom without aggro from all the kids on the way....

 

[FreeloadingScrub]

Find pathing in Halas is the best.

 

[ChatWithThisName]

Find pathing in Halas is the best.

You didn't request the scenic route?

Also, you may want to look into your mesh to find out why it would do that. My default mesh works fine.

 

[Arai]

Ssraa temple is by far the worst for autofollow

 

[redhero1000]

Stoneroot falls

 

[WhyteTech]

NAV pathing is terrible in unrest. It's like it doesnt recognize -any- of the doors. Haven't messed with the mesh either (dont know how). I just avoid closed spaces like that now.

 

[Metalhead]

All of these suggestions are childs play compared to Theater of Blood!

 

[Yenil]

Old school hate was pretty bad.
