I'm just pissed of trying to take a sorceress with my tank and then she jumps to back leaving the battle and being unable to take them. I've seen squigs doing that a lot. Never played with this class so I admit it must be a kind of ability once they use that a lot. But a sorc? I had a sorc in official game and i dont know this ability. Please, share with us destro players, whats the magic you're doing. I wanna my kotbs jumping too.

It's all ranged they just jump and jump while they run away and you can't hit them.

I guess it was technically a kick, also forgot about latency issues.

OP what country do you live in? The server is located in the UK. You can check your ping in the resource manager when the game is running.

I must say.. I imagine its gonna be hard to do whats needed to fix that. But holy crap is it annoying having to use my aoe to hit a guy right infront of me. Then in turn after killing that person have them call me a noob for using aoe on single target.

I feel kinda awkward now because I didn't actually know this caused melee range issues. I sometimes jumped as I was kiting away out of habit. It was more of a frustration thing where I felt I wasn't moving fast enough and jumping helped. >.<
If its a bug then I'll refrain from doing it. :oops:

I'm sure you're not the only one jumping because you felt you werent moving fast enough xD. I used to do it way back when I played a squig herder in live even though I knew it didn't help. Here it does though but I play melee exclusive now. Even if you snare them, it takes away from your damage. Not mentioning getting snared/rooted/knocked back or just server lagging. :(
