Thrown Weapons Bugged?

[rpasell]

I have a halfling thrower. I've noticed over the past few weeks that thrown attacks appear bugged, much like bow attacks. It appears to be worse than the ranged bow attack problem though. It was especially pronounced running Rainbows in the Dark. If there wasn't a direct line to the target (and I mean direct) I wouldn't get an attack roll. If there was a step, a slight variation in elevation, an object sticking out of the ground, anything at all that shouldn't have an effect on an attack roll, I wouldn't get a roll at all.

anyone else notice this lately?

I have just recently built a halfling thrower and was encountering similar problems. I at first thought that it was just my inability to line up the shots because i was new to the build. But upon testing, any deviation in pathing from a direct line resulted in no die to see if i hit or missed.

I have had to run backwards with the enemy running straight at me to be effective at hitting these guys. I hope that precise shot helps out some, we shall see

That is actually another problem. I have Improved Precise Shot and that wasn't working in Rainbows either. I haven't had a chance to do any testing outside of that quest though (yes, I had it toggled on).

I have a level 15 halfling thrower and I've just noticed this problem recently. I never paid enough attention to the lay of land to know if it was that that was causing the lack of attack rolls (unless there was some sort barrier between me and my target). However, I noticed that if Improved Precise Shot is on when I switch to my throwing hammers, I NEVER get an attack roll, but when I switch it off, it seems to work fine. Daggers, darts and axes work just fine with Improved Precise Shot

I also noticed that I mostly seem to miss when I have auto-attack on. If I turn it off and right click attack (or just right click while auto attack is on) it usually fixes it up.

I would be fine if throwing hammers would not function with IPS (really hard to imagine a hammer ripping a hole through a target anyways), but you should still get an attack roll on the initial target if not the later and not have to toggle IPS off.
