DarkonCOH99 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Windows: Heather Townsand Arc, Second Mission. After exiting entry hall, Heather addresses the character in a caption message. I am a Mastermind, she keep addressing "Battle Drone", not me. I have run the arc multiple times, she always addresses "Battle Drone". This has happened before with various NPC's in the past, unfortunately I can't remember who at this time. GM Korvin suggested a bug report.

Burk Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I've seen talking enemies do this with pets that they are aggroed to, but I don't think I've seen that happen in captions before. From Champion (Hero) and Infinity (Villain), currently playing on Everlasting. Former member of the Hammers of Justice on Champion. Raid leader for 'Everlasting TFs'. Mains: Trickery Girl (Ill/Rad Controller), Burk (Sword/Shield Stalker), and 6 other complete badge characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srmalloy Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I had it happen to me last night, when my Stone/Storm Controller was rescuing a city official who'd been conned into working with the Family; after I spoke with her, an assassin showed up, and after the assassin was defeated, she addressed my Animated Stone pet rather than myself.

RikOz Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 It seems there are odd situations where mobs will get confused and address whichever model is closest to them. I've seen ally NPCs do this too - saying something that was clearly directed at me, but with the name of one of the enemy mobs in place of mine.

They often address the PC nearest them rather than the mission holder too... Unofficial Homecoming Wiki - Paragon Wiki updated for Homecoming! Your contributions are welcome!

RikOz Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 This kind of thing used to amuse me in WoW. Some mobs would call you by name while fighting you, but I always thought it was odd when I was on my hunter, and I would be at range but my pet would be directly attacking in melee, and so the mob would say my pet's name instead of mine. I'd be all, "wait, this random ogre in the middle of the jungle knows my dog's name?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Claw Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 It's not just Mastermind pets. I've pretty consistently used one of the P2W Pets, whichever one seems RP-reasonable for the particular character, and in some missions the NPCs address the Pet for some reason. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
