April 22, 201510 yr I noticed today while killing the guards in house domean (demian? daruman?) in Defiance Bay, that enemies can shoot through walls. Aloth only had 6 health left in my game, so I parked him two rooms away, out of sight of the next battle (also, two full corners inbetween him and enemies). The AI of the guards seems to priority-target squishies (good thing imho), so the one with the Arbequs tried shooting Aloth, regardless of line-of-sight and with him not even participating in the fight from start to finish. How to replicate: Have an AI-priority target in your group (weak armor, low health) and place it outside visibility range; then engage combat against the gun-armed guards in house domean. Screenshots will be edited in later. Edited April 22, 201510 yr by Zwiebelchen
April 22, 201510 yr Casters can do it too. And wurms. Everyone except anyone in your party. Thats not fully correct. Spells which jump to multiple targets cast by your party can do that too. Edited April 22, 201510 yr by Xaratas More modding for PoE II | How to Work with Stringtables
April 25, 201510 yr Yeah, this is pretty annoying. I used to just chalk it up as enemies shooting at uncanny angles (because it usually seemed to happen through doorways), but just now one of my party members was hit by Crippling Strike through a cave wall; the enemy was a room over and at an angle that would be completely impossible to shoot through a doorway (since my group was very far south of it). My ranged characters want railguns too! Edited April 25, 201510 yr by Sanctuary
April 25, 201510 yr Zwiebelchen, do you have a saved game with which the issue could be easily reproduced? I'd be happy to write up repro steps if you could provide it. "Time is not your enemy.

April 26, 201510 yr @AndreaColombo: I opened a thread for the same issue yesterday (although it's a crossbowman in my case). There's a savegame attached to it: http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/78515-enemies-shoot-through-walls/ Have fun with it
