Fix ITF mobs not yielding exp and inf

When everyone runs past the enemy to the next xp givers whilst the enemy is still behind is not really how it would work

I have never run an ITF, except for the very rare "speed" ones, where the team consistently ignored any of the enemies.

It is not much to ask for to give some xp to these mobs. 

 

Why you would argue against it?

No attacks = no XP.  It seems weird to me that anyone would think they should get XP from an enemy who, themselves, cannot harm you.  Even the most team-oriented player character has at least some attacks...

The Surgeon's Healing Aura will heal you when they're confused, but they won't use Heal Other on you when confused.

This isn’t happening in reality. Players are either killing Surgeons with their AoE’s, or they’re shooting down leftover Surgeons to stop big targets from getting healed. No one is carefully avoiding Surgeons like they’re raisins in a trail mix.

When i look down the hill and just see lots of Surgeons, it is a little weird to me. I was mostly half assed joking in this thread but as usual players become aggressive lol.

 

I understand opinions other than yours are not allowed but it was fun 😘

 

Lube them thumbs up guys. 

As a reminder, people disagreeing doesn't mean that they are attacking you.

 

However, when you post something that most people have not encountered to support your view, you are going to be called out.   You may as well have said "No one trains at Ms Liberty, they all go to Back Alley Brawler."

 

In an ITF or any cimeroran content, surgeons are prime targets because they buff the rest.   The only time they get bypassed at all is on speed runs, and only if they are not anywhere near a target.    We don't have ITFs advertised on LFG as "+4 KM ITF, except for surgeons"

Thing is i did state it was MY OWN personal view on it. Either way i wasn't that bothered but thought i would mention it and that others may have noticed also (it seems they have). So i took a light hearted stab at it.

 

Disagreeing is fine but it's the manner you do it in.

 

I understand why they have done it but i still think they should be worth some xp as they are assisting, even if it means lowering the others slightly. But as i say it is my own personal view on this topic as was asked for.

 

Problem is just typing can easily be misinterpreted and as usual forum users take the negative view.
