mrbeanflicker Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Put spoilers in the tag just so people won't freak out on me... On Alderaan when you have to go to the Rist place to kill Din Aryen (or whatever his name is...) I was seriously standing right in front of the guy, about 31m, crouched behind my shield, and it was telling me I couldn't see the guy. So I scoot up even further, still can't see him. So I get right on top of him and of course his turrets and he waste my *** cause I couldn't range fight him. I eventually had a buddy come help me to kill him. The Eagle fight - almost the same thing. I am looking right at him, maybe 20m, but I couldn't "see" him until I was inside the room, right on top of him where he proceeds to beat me down pretty fast. Also - my companions wouldn't obey my attack command unless I was right on top of him and even then they wouldn't do it until I had already been hit a ton. Darth Jadus - I was not about to go through this crap again, because I read another post where someone said the whole "cannot see target" thing was happening to them. I figured if it happened to me a few times before it would probably happen on the Jadus fight. So, since I'm 100% dark side anyway, I sided with him to avoid the fight...(and cause I'm super evil.) I'll be honest though I felt a tinge of remorse, as my natural instinct was to fight him there (even though i know he escapes). I am hoping they give us a chance to fight him again further down the line. Anyway if you've read this far, please let me know if this is happening to a lot of people. Also, I too have the whole "ambush animation cast delay blahblah" problem allll the time like many of you have stated.

YukonPete Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Yeah I was wondering if other agents were having the same problem. I am on the Darth Jadus fight and I cannot target him. I can get in close and knife him a few times but by that time my companion is dead and I can only manage to get him down to about 40% health before I die. If I could range fight him he would go down so much easier. *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbeanflicker Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 Yeah. Mainly the reason I sided with him. I almost had a total freak out on the other boss fights, I wasn't going to put up with it on Jadus, haha. I dunno how I feel about this class yet.

FatherOblivion Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Having the same problem with the operative. He's a close combat specialist and he can't "see" him despite being next to him. They need to fix that and fix it FAST. To not be able to advance the arc of an entire class is a pretty bad bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nat_King_Swole Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 It's happened to several other people I've talked to and its currently the reason I'm stuck at the end of chapter 1 and unable to progress. Even after the fight starts I'm unable to attack about 90% of the time until its too late or if I can somehow knock him off the platform. Why things like this weren't addressed in the beta I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davans Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Why things like this weren't addressed in the beta I have no idea. I thought that too, but from reading a couple of other threads, this seems to have only started popping up recently. it could be one of the recent patches caused this bug.

Bingo, they are newly bugged as I've gone through all these encounters without this bug happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheProphet Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Yeah, I had this problem during the Darth Jadus Fight as well, but i figured out a way around it. If you stand far enough back, you can send your companion in to initiate, and right when Darth Jadus starts attacking, switch your companion to passive and they should port right back over to you. You can then fight Jadus normally, as he will run out to you. A bit annoying, but it works. This does need to be fixed soon though, it was pretty aggravating when i had to do that 3 times...

Makes sense. I didn't really see anything posted about it when I first encountered the problem yesterday but more and more people are starting to bring it up so I imagine it will get fixed pretty quickly.

griszagen Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 It's very common lately:Jadus, Alyn, Bashun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinaya Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Having just gone through that quest, I can confirm I had the "cannot see" issue. If I sent my companion in first though and let her fight him, then engaged from melee range, I could use ambush to knock him off the platform. Since story wise I'm dying to know, if I'd sided with him, would he still have escaped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coccolone Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 same here,i asked help to a guildie healer to complete Jadus kill because of that bug .Another strange thing is rolling to cover to hit a target and can't shoot him because the choosen place is in LOS,or another bug is that sometimes,using Series of Shot i'm able to shoot just the first one,and consequently stacking just 1 DOT,and starting the cooldown on it...any 1 seen those bug aswell or i'm the choosen 1?^^ and also:if u seen those bug can i ask u if there were in beta too? (just a curiosity) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timealude Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I have been having this problem tonight up to the point where i just logged off out of frustration. Unless you are right next to him he will not attack, nor can you attack him at point blank range, which then (because of the area he is in) it forces you into cover where you "Cannot see target" again. very annoy and cant progress till this is fixed sadly. =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaidax Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Hey, I joined with Jadus, because I am a huge ******e and I wanted some clout with Dark Council. Other than that, I had such a bug once and I have no idea what is causing it. It is rare, though, so don't trouble yourself with it and just /bug ingame.

Seteleechete Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 i used interrogation probe then kited him down the stair to battle him /= still took me 3+hrs and 60k+ in med supplies/repairs to kill him but it was impossible for me to kill him with target bug so i had to kite him down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkfrost Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Didnt have a problem on the fights you mentioned. This has happened to me though on adds where i cant attack a group of adds and it is very frustrating. Hope they fix it soon along with ambush and snipe cancelling while in cover every now and than.

galfagor Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Same thing happening to me on Jadus... I was able to get him to about 5% but with everything on cd, my companion dead and he did that massive dmg spell of his... Just logged out to avoid more stress... Glad to see this a more or less known and disseminated bug, and hope that bw fix it quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serisno Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Talk about a let down. I was finally getting really into the story, and getting really immersed... and then this happens. Cannot see target... sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolishPowderkeg Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I'm having this problem too. Wasting lots of creds on medpacks. Put in a request... Bioware please fix ASAP, not being able to progress class story is fail to the maximum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciuridae Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 best way to combat the bug with Jadus- put companion on passive: walk up behind him & hit him with debilitate : run for the upright monitors to give him LOS problems: set pet loose and time interrupts- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pryt Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 (edited) I will continue Jadus later, since it's annoying on even level to read: 'cannot see target' while you try to heal Kaliyo, and well, one step left or right of her and 'cannot see target' and until you got a line of sight position again she's already dead. I don't know who put up that crap, but some people in BW must be heroic sadists. I'm not willing to bring in friends for the story missions, since it's Agent business, and so it's classified. Just got to wait, annoying ... but well. Edited January 2, 2012 by pryt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitiz Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I'm a level 33 sniper and had the 'cannot see target' problem on Darth Jadus as well. I just kept looking for a spot that would let me use my Cover skills and whooped his butt with the help of medpacs and a stim of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolishPowderkeg Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Question: how can I get a friend to help on this bugged quest since they can't enter my ship and it's not on a "planet"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderClees Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I found a work around. If you stand back and target him with Suppressive fire he will come and rush you then you can target. If it doesn't work the first time keep trying it will eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
