Fear spell mechanics - opinions needed
Hi there. I haven't played EqLive since Feb 2002 and I do not plan on going back. While it has been a thought of mine to purchase a game card or something to test this out, I thought it would be better answered here. Bear in mind - My main was a 55 necro.
I remember, when casting a fear spell - Resists were based on magic resistance of the mob being cast on. The random duration was based on the level of the spell. While feared, a mob
would stop attacking unless rooted. If a feared mob wandered off too far away, it would sometimes forget about you unless it "saw" you again. This much I remember...
What I would like opinion about is: Do you think all feared mobs simply reverse-traverse their "pathing" or did they all seem to go towards the same point in a zone and wander back and forth? Have you ever "feared" a mob and had it wander toward you while feared? Concerning fearing players in PvP, (something I never got a chance to do outside arena) did the feared player seem to wander off randomly or did they go toward the same place the feared mobs seem to go?
Any opinions you have on this would be greatly appreciated.
