Battle Damage
I've recently started hunting again in the last two weeks.
I don't believe that I'm getting all of the attack and damage information.
It's seems like the damage messages need to "warm up" in much the same way an area does when I first arrive to hunt there.
For example, Working on lvl 30ish chaos warrior. I arrive west of augh in the red spider area. After about 10 mins at a min I started to see 4 or 5 of the red backed spiders. Using spells to attack, I'm seeing very little if any damage info comming from the spiders for the first few battles.
After those first few fights I believe that I am seeing all of the monsters attacks and damage.
I have also noticed this as lvl 100 Elar when dealing with the hostile resource areas, Mith golems and Marble. First few fights lack damage info from the golems.
Also I've noted that having electrocuted bolder golems I get hammered in the middle on one of those stunning flurries and no message just the grunt and loss of hit points.
In addition in the last few days I have also noted several people in the market place mention. Instant death situations where they are dead and confused as to why since there wasn't any battle damage reported to them.
These examples cover time before and after tues maint.
Anyone else running into lack of battle damage. I'd believe lag if the battle damage tapered off after playing for hours or something.. (the inverse lag squared law in effect maybe?) lol "Someone please kick the lag converter"
