HOODRXCH Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) Idk if it's because of an update or what but companions barely work, 95% of the time they just stand there and do nothing and you have to put them on passive/attack constantly, and sometimes that doesn't even work. Maybe it's just Warrior companions, haven't tried other classes yet, but it's definitely frustrating. Fix now! Edited May 10, 2019 by HOODRXCH
TheRandomno Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 It seems that all companions, ranged at least, will not move in range of targets if they are out of range or have been LOSed. I don't know when this bug was introduced.
michaelcshow Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) You're a bit late to the party on this one. It affects all ranged companions. Broken since December (5.10), acknowledged by Musco March 11th, and here we are in May now. No other official communication on it's status, and still broke, 7 patches later. Originally Posted by Setokai Any chance the problem of companions not attacking a target over 30 meters away being addressed in that patch? This will not be fixed in this patch. We definitely understand this is a big issue, on our side it is also a pretty large undertaking to resolve. We have people actively working on the fix but I would not expect it super soon. I do not believe it is in 5.10.2 (our next major patch) but it is in the works to hopefully come thereafter. I will provide more details as I get them. -eric Cause breaking half the companions in the game can wait apparently. Edited May 10, 2019 by michaelcshow
SteveTheCynic Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Cause breaking half the companions in the game can wait apparently. Read. More. Carefully. Eric is saying that it's a lot of work for them to fix it, not that they have let it lie and will change a couple of lines of code when they feel like it.

I read just fine Steve so save the snarky reply for someone else please. It's a lot of work. Next major patch level work, so 5.10.3 hopefully. However it's also been 6 months, for an issue that affects half the comps of every player in the game. Having us wait through two major patches (hopefully just two) before it's resolved is pushing the asked for patience.
