The Mana World Forums

Hi I am new here but i created to report this bug, I only have been playing the game 2 days but already I came across a major or maybe not so major bug.

when you attack monsters you can hit them when there is a gap of one square between you, so what I do is I go to 2 square away then hit the monster before it can hit me I run 3 squares away and hit the attack button repeatedly then when he comes into range I hit him then before he hits me i run another square away and repeat, I can kill massively stronger monsters getting not even attacked once! I mean is it bug or no i leave it up to you to decide, its kinda cool but i thought better report it :/ because there might be other people who like exploiting bugs.

We are using a server called eAthena, which was designed for Ragnarok Online, and a very old version of it to.

We are currently developing our own server.

eAthena has many issues which we either can not, or will not fix.

Though this problem could simply be solved by increasing monster speed, its not a major issue. We'd rather focus on TMWServ development then worry about eA bugs like this.

Leveling up like that on the long run will be painful. Also the monster density of aggressive monsters later on will make it rather useless.

As it is now, I just see it as a valid tactic early on.

I used this technique when I was a low-level, and it is basically just a way to dodge monsters. But in the long run you have to invest stat points in vitality, and be able to take hits.

So use it now if you want, but don't forget that you have to be able to take hits as well as give them.

well I was killing yellow slimes when I had plenty attack (kill in 3 hits) but not enough vitality also with this method you could just get str and get no vit and kill monsters really fast while taking no damage, Though I have to admit you have to be good at arcade games to move your character perfect and attack at the right times otherwise it is useless, but me I am pro at arcade so it works for me .

though monsters with high speed don't work anyway only slimes and other slow critters work like this log head work great when your low level.

This tactic should work in the Snake Pit aswell.

Hmm, you could be the first one who would be successful with an AGI/LUK build.
