    Blocker?
    Details:

    if i stand on a higher positon and can shoot the skeleton footman (he can reach me if he climbes up) so as he approaches i jump down and he follows me down the walkway but my next 2 ranged shots are always dodged...

    same with jumping up in a region where the footman cannot follow:
    after he lost interest in me and attacks my elemental - i need 2 shots on a position where he can walk to before i can damage him again...

    only happens with melee-enemies...

    Steps to Reproduce:see above

    This is expected behavior. There is an invisible timer in the backend that counts down after a player enters a location that's out of reach of an enemy. This is intended to prevent the potential for players to overly abuse environments and ping-pong enemies by moving quickly in and out of unreachable locations. Many players still try.

    Possible that somewhere in between is considered unreachable.

    as long as the enemy doesn't loose his lock on me i should be able to hit him then (he doesn't attack my pet which is still on top then)
