[Responded] Docile Animals (rabbits,doe,stag,etc) are not able to be killed

Bug possibly due to the auto-targeting change.
No damage to the following creatures, either targeted or not targeted.

Animals Tested:
Doe, Dog (for science), Rabbit, Sheep, Stag, Squirrel, and Watchers.
Might want to test Obsidian stag as well.

Areas Tested:
Bandit Encounter, Red Sash bandit Encounter, Stag Encounter, Plains Encounter, Skeleton Plains Encounter
Brit Graveyard,Towns, and Scenes

Weapons Used in Testing:
Arrows, Sturdy Hammer, Lesser/Elven Mage Staff, Lesser Wand, Fire/Stone/Ice Arrow, Flame/Stone/Ice Fist

I have confirmed this with another QA tester who obtained the same results.

 

@MrChadwyck, how did you target them? i just went into brit graveyard, shift-clicked a watcher, a doe, a chicken, and a dog, and killed them with a sword. the autoattack didn't engage, which is new, but sword glyphs worked.

on the other hand, stone arrow did not hit them. goes right through.

 

I double clicked on targets with cursor. It displayed their health bar on screen. Then i tried ice/fire/earth magic, bows, and hammers. I tried arrow glyphs, which didn't work.

I just went into Brit Graveyard, used Shift + Click and still unable to kill targets

 

it may be related to what i said in my other bugreport you still can kill them with some AOE attacks....

that sounded like a good theory, so i went back and looked at the chatlog and all those things had been killed by whirling blades, and that made it seem even more likely, but i logged in again and killed a dog with thrust.

 

yup confirmed, also happens on the npcs in tenebris, you cant double click them to attack but you can use a move and that will flag them.

 

Build 669
I tested some Bludgeon and Blades glyphs and they worked,
however no arrow or fist spells or Ranged glyphs worked.

I enjoyed shooting flame arrows into rabbits and using stone fist to see how many sheep I could kill at once.

Discharge seems to work on most animals, except for cats...

 

Build 668 / 669 / 670
They can also not be tamed anymore.
Auto-Attack do not work, even when they are marked as target.

 

There are some issues going on with zero damage with certain spells, against certain types of NPCs.
I do think that is what is related here. I hope we get this fixed ASAP.
Sorry for the issues...
