I have been noticing lately that I am not getting rolls a lot lately when swinging at enemies sometimes even when I am right on top of them but usually when I am right in maximum swing range for my weapon. I am on a WF TR was WF barb now WF Battle cleric so I don't know if maybe it's the change in size or what but I was wondering if anyone else was having the same issues so I could find out if there's anything I can do on my end.

the last couple of days I have noticed it when entering combat....as I come into the mob and do my normal attack (as you mentioned, from maximum weapon distance), that the swing doesn't happen, the roll doesn't happen, but I am closer to the mob than I wanted to be. This is key when you lead in with stunning blow to the mage....and all you get is nothing but the mage running past you and then you having to turn and fight now. Messing up my initiative attack man...lol :D
...but yeah...been noticing :(

Yep, now not only are ranged attacks mysteriously "dropping" (no roll, no hit, like they have been for years), melee attacks are doing it also. I have noticed it on my Tempest, and my 2HF Paladin both.

I been having the same problem and then sometimes I noticed that while running and swinging sometimes my hit is pretty far away. meaning I am running and swinging and something I guess in DDO range would be like 40 to 60 feet? I notice it most of all with my Vorpal Great Axe.

Yep, I think that most of us have just been ignoring it, since asking for the ranged fix for 4 years hasn't worked we just kinda give up when things like this happen. It is sad.

Yeah i notice that too, most on my monk when trying to stuning the mob on the first hit... it is really annoyng to waste ki that way. and other thing i notice is when i click on a potion the cool down time start and i get no healing, also the potion is not used.
heally annnoyng when you are about to die.

I noticed it after update 6 and for a while I thought it was only THF but I have noticed it on my tempest ranger also just not nearly as often. It has me not ever using any tactics until I am getting hit rolls which is a big waste as normally the mobs are already almost dead after a few hits anyways. So basicly the only time I use tactics is when I'm surrounded.

I thought it was just latency until today I ran in to a mob, that was trying to run past me. It seemed to get hug up on me, first trying to go right, then going left to get around me. While it was trying to run past me I was swinging at it, Used a stunning blow, then a trip and a sunder.
Once it was past me, it turned around started to attack me, then my trip hit it.
So I started testing with a hireling, I'd let the hire get aggro then tried to hit the mobs chasing it. Most of the time I can outrun the mob to the point that I'm almost pushing it when I follow it. While chasing the mobs I found that none of my swings were registering, no miss, no nothing.
Then I had a friend help by kiting mobs. I found that even if he ran them past me I could not hit them. Not if I swung before they came past, not if I swung while they were in front of me not even if I swung at the air after their passing. When I used haste and a fighter haste boost to put up a wall of swings for the mob to run through it didn't hit then either.
It's not a huge issue when a mob is already right in my face attacking. But I'm losing a lot of stunning blows to hitting air when I should be hitting mob and attacking mobs that are chasing someone else is nearly impossible.

Yup...me too.
Especially annoying as on my main I tend to charge in with a stunning blow or trip...only to find that I make no contact with the mob even though my giant maul swings right through him.
Annoying!!!

Also noticed it. Another interesting thing is that if i want to hit a running mob, i have to be almost like inside of the mob while running.
After 1 second or 2 it appears like the mob starts rubber banding and i allways get hits on it when that happens.

Clearly what has happened is turbine has replaced all the mobs in the game with displacer beasts.
