"Skill Lock" exploit
Fragment of a discussion from Talk:Solo Battle Tactics
An exploit is just a bug that people use to their own gain. Here's some evidence that shows this is not intentional:
- Unlike players, if a monster gets stuck in this, they actually move toward the player. If a player has defense loaded and attempts to attack an enemy, they stand still.
- Unlike every single other time a monster loads a skill, it never gets cancelled.
- If the monster reaches the target, it will start to 'jitter' near the player.
- The only time this happens is in a very small window within every monster's AI.
- The skill that it can get stuck in is not a specific skill, but any skill.
- Various monsters have various AI that make them seem more 'life-like'. This bug does the opposite of appear life-like.
It's actually because of the last reason that I sometimes question whether mill finish is intentional. It just doesn't look right when 20 spiders are all staring at you in a clump. But that's a whole other topic!
