Describe the bug
When attacking an outdoor mob in higher level zones (ones with enough health they don't instantly die when attacked), they will respond by giving chase for a short distance, then stop for several seconds before "twitching" (as if they're respawning rapidly) and spamming chat with "Attacked by " messages. This behavior continues indefinitely and while it occurs auto-attacks pause and hostile nano programs cannot be used.

Hostile perk actions can be used and do land, but other types of attacks do not work.

Moving away can cause the mob to be "normal" again for a short time until you stop and engage, at which point it will resume spamming and being unattackable.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Go to a higher level zone. I tested EFP and Avalon.
Find a "normal mob"
Engage it in combat
It chases normally for a short time
Then it "twitches", visually glitching
Chat is spammed with "Attacked by " messages
Mob cannot be attacked other than with perk actions

Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

In the screenshots - chat was spamming

Confirmed. There appears to be a disconnect between the location the client is reporting the mobs to be and where the server thinks it is. You can see evidence of this at the end of the video when the mob corpse is placed miles away.

While troubleshooting, I was wondering if it might be at all related to #347, since they exhibit some of the same behavior when pathing.

It's looking a lot better than it was, but yeah, pathfinding still sucks, unfortunately.

Yeah, there are still situations where the attack bars get totally jammed, but it seems a bit cleaner in that regard. Progress!

Following the lerp changes, a lot of the combat pathing problems have been solved, so closing this as fixed from 18:20 UTC - 26/02/24
