Darkshot Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Hello everyone, me and my family were playing the game together as we have been doing for a long time, and my dad is running into an issue that I have never had with Masterminds before. For his bots/arrow mastermind the robots seem to randomly in the middle of combat change from aggressive to defensive and stop attacking entirely. I do not have this issue with my bots and his demon mastermind doesn't have this issue either. Is this a glitch or would it be something in the settings he has to change?

Neiska Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Its hard to say without seeing it, but are they just killing off their targets, or is it mid-combat? Is he using a power that turns only self-abilities on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkshot Posted June 11, 2022 Author Share Posted June 11, 2022 For this case sometimes it is mainly in the middle of combat, but rarely at the end, currently he has all three of the little bots but one protector bot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrikerFox Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I can't think of anything that would cause this, I've never had this issue myself. Maybe check his trays and see if he has defensive mode on a key. Maybe he's pressing it during play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neiska Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Nor me. The only thing I can think of is he's using custom macros or commands. I would make sure you are in advanced mode, and then drag the various commands to your hotbar. That's how I manage my MMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidge Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 If the henchmen have not changed (a non offensive) stance, if an enemy is not attacking then the henchmen will ignore nearby enemies. I have observed this with Thugs/thermal but not Robotics/traps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C U R S E Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Neiska is exactly right and I have encountered this when utilizing macros with masterminds before. Check the tray layout and all corresponding macros or key binds your Dad is using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrones Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 (edited) Thugs/Storm here, I've seen this happen a few times. I only have the attack command on my tool bar, and occasionally my thugs will not target nearby enemies. I think it has to do with a set of conditions where I don't have any aggro, and they have not been directly attacked, so their defensive triggers don't engage. Quick fix is target a mob and hit attack again. Edited June 22, 2022 by Thrones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick fix is target a mob and hit attack again. This is what I've observed with my Thugs MM. I've done the same "one simple trick". Usually this will happen when there is a single enemy, but occasionally there will be multiple enemies in some sort of "control patch" where there is neither aggro nor directed offense, at me or the henchmen.
