Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

The marsh ink spewers are casting Ink Spray WAY TOO FREQUENTLY.. i do not remember 10 years ago these mobs maintaining 100% uptime on a 50% chance to miss debuff... much like the snapjaws in barrens.. this debuff is ment for a 40-50% uptime AT MOST.. not 100.. c'mon...

Common private server issue, the inkspewers are impossible to kill as melee on other private servers.

The snapjaws in the barrens are working as intended, their debuff timer is low.

It is not just inkspewers, many mobs are using some of their abilities far too frequently, often with overlapping duration.

Take any mob with a net ability (e.g. Galak Wrangler or Woodpaw Trapper) - those mobs have a 10 second net ability. Moreover, they use ranged attacks if you are >8 yards away. Finally, they usually recast their net ability before the previous net has expired.

This creates a very unique scenario for melee classes:
1. If the mob aggros you from range and nets you, the fight becomes a glorified ranged weapon competition - you can easily die in a 1v1 fight such as this, unless your ranged weapon skill is high enough.
2. As the mobs run away at 15%, if you don't manage to finish them off before they escape melee range, they will proceed to shoot you from range once they have stopped running.

Personally I don't have a big issue with those features. I highly doubt they are blizzlike, however.

A lot of the Hunter type mobs like the quilboar hunters have a dead zone if you stand far enough away so they can't melee you and close enough so they can't shoot, they just stand there like an idiot.

The ai on this server is very poor.
