Andor's Trail

Not quite, Nyktos, although that is an interesting idea as well. We just want an option that makes it so if I'm moving along and I see a monster and I decide to run towards it and try to attack it, if I miss it accidentally by going beside it instead of hitting it dead on because my overly wide finger covers the screen and I can't see where exactly my character is going it will still initiate combat instead of "dancing the left foot polka" beside the monster and then getting attacked by it first because I didn't succeed in initiating combat.

i still think we are talking about the same thing,
but i didn't type the other choice besides low aggression...

so, again...

low aggression =
you are in a constant mode of "Flee / Running Away"
even if you charge head on into an enemy - you STILL dont initiate combat.

and the opposite choice would be...

high aggression =
you will initiate combat every time you stand adjacent to an enemy

this way, not only is your problem solved,
but those seeking to avoid battles (traveling) would have an easier time too...

so, then everyone can choose their level of aggression, or area of threat.

+1 Yes, we need something like that...

We have to make sure that just because the player initiates combat they don't automatically get first strike. That would need to be a separate function if we were to do something like this.

and why is that ? people who play on better phones get the advantage of being always able to initiate combat= first strike. we don't because our phones are too small and fingers too big. or am i missing something??

There are two ways when monsters got first strike:
-monster move on your position
-every time when monster is next to you there are 15% chance, thats why evasion is one of the best skills

Use D-pad it helps a lot.

Happy hunting

Better phones still do the ' left foot tango' a lot... And there always had to be a chance, however slight it may be, that the mob can get first strike, otherwise, where's the challenge?

Don't take me seriously but I think you are a buncha tangoin mastas and need your dexterity checked. I suck at the tango but my ninja thumb nails em 98% of the time. *flex* and I have a Lol Samsung gem.
