Fighting without getting enemy hits...

Hopefully the devs will get that bug and the other exploit bugs fixed soon.

Hey, before they closed down phase 1 beta, you could shoot the snot out of skellies, and they wouldn't attack you. Ah, fun times, fun times.

I think when you get to a certain level, lower level enemies can't damage you. I can stand in a group of anything level 21 or below and never take a hit.

That's what makes the field at Kingshead a good place to help friends level up their weapons. I can "bait" the group of veterans and stand in the middle of them. Then my friend can attack them without taking hits and get the rep for doing it.

It's especially helpful when someone is working on their grenades, because it keeps the group from chasing the grenade thrower.

An update here...

I tested this "standing in the water thing" out all over Driftwood and was never attacked back. Tried it on Devil's Anvil when dropping off a load of cargo and it didn't work there, got attacked right back. I'm going to try some other islands today, and post the results. Think it may just be a Driftwood thing...

Worked my voodoo doll up three levels in like 45 minutes by attuning three giant crabs at once, luring them to the waters edge and just using Poke on them. Got 100 pts a piece for them. Probably could have gone further, but it got boring, LOL.

lol guys you did realise this works both ways.

Enemies 10 levels or lower than you cannot hit you,

but enemies 10 level or higher above you, you cannot hit them!

The creatures I'm speaking of are right at my lev (I'm 27, they are all btwn 19 and 30) And I'm talking about them not being able to attack me when I get my feet in the water....they can attack on the beach.

About not being able to attack anyone 10 or higher than you, I have, I do, so I haven't seen that before. As far as those more than 10 under your level, I haven't paid much attention, but you may be right that they can't damage you...It may just be that you take them out so fast they don't have a chance to hurt you.

Thanks for the info, Vangelis. I didn't know it was a ten level difference either way.

I think the difference with the crab on Driftwood is that it doesn't attack you when you're in the water. Kind of like the Grunt in Fort Charles that doesn't attack you if you keep him up on the gallows, regardless of your level. I used both of those enemies in my lower levels to get big chunks of rep points.

The enemies that are 10+ lower level than you do attack you, they just never hit you.

Not sharing?? Awe, how very pirate of you

By the by I didn't think this was a "glitch", I didn't do it on purpose. It just happens I found that when you're on Driftwood, and you lure an enemy to the water, they can't attack you.

I've tried the "water trick" on every other Island, and it's a no go. Got to be a Driftwood only thing....works for me
