Gahele teleport issue

[SisAmethyst]

I already noticed this bug once when in Blown to Bits. A summoned Ghaele, fully buffed with blur, stoneskin, protection of elements, etc. go havok on the mobs and teleport between them every second, thus producing a hugh lag:


The lag itself seem to be produced through the constant re-apply of the buffs and on the image you can see the fire and electric tubes arround the ghaele at different location while it teleport. It more or less freeze my system while doing so and only stopped after the enemy was dead. I did already bug report it but I wonder if someone else noticed this too and if this only affect the Ghaele or other summons that can telport as well.

Happened to me too, with a summoned Gahele, while doing the end boss of Dream Conspiracy.

Also with a Ghaele or with another summon, and was it buffed to the teath or without buff?

Edited my previous post.

It was with a Ghaele, I didn't buff it.

Ghaele's buff themselves. This bug has occurred since update 11 or 12, and has yet to be fixed. This can cause party wipes due to the graphical lag reducing people's FPS down to single digits.

Right, my bad.

Then it was buffed and the graphical effect was the one described in the OP.

This has happened a few times to me in different quests, but I never knew what caused it (I didn't summon the Ghaele).

Wow!!! This summon is so powerful that it can command the lag monster at will?! Forget my ever faithful air ele, I want one of these!

Yes, they have some buffs they apply to themself, if I recall it correctly it is Bless or Aid. My question about the buffs where mainly targeted in the direction if one of the buffs given to them trigger this behaviour of teleport freak out or if this happen independent of that.

The thing is that it not only teleport between two mobs, but as well teleport arround big mobs to attack them from each single angle. The only thing you left to see and hear is those tubes of the teleport locations and the sound of the buffs applying all over again.

Unfortunatelly I fear that this not only create lag in your local instance but as well create a high load on the server itself. I only wonder if this only happen to the Ghaele or if someone ever noticed on other teleporting summons like Devils, Orthos or Hezrou too.

It can happen on kobolds using teleporters during the challenges. You'll see a streak of the effects zipping between the teleport locations around the invisible kobold.

Yeah this one sucks. I reported it previously, but it happened to me in Running With The Devils and a few others. So it's not quest specific.

Another way to reproduce this is with hirelings:
* 'Axer' package them with buffs
* get somewhere high, like that explorer spot in the Vale
* jump off with feather fall on
* spam the feet/follow button

But the above experience I had with a hezrou in Menechtarun with a beaut of a train & a full cleric buff package.

Ok, just had one totally spaz out in Devil Assault after being fine for a minute or two. Not only did it cause some graphic lag, as it went on the lag intensified. It was eventually dismissed by summoning something else.

thx for the acknowledgment

Well, that was one of the first things I tried as I noticed it happen. Unfortunatelly I could click all buttons on my hotbar including casting a new summon, but till this information finally got out to the server and was confirmed the mob was already dead, and I saw several +5 SP mana regen rolling in at the same time afterwards for the Ghaele (combat log).

That is why I fear that this lag not only is an issue for a single instance/player but as well take down other resources.

All mobs that teleport (and burrow and phase) should have a minimum reuse time of 6 seconds before they can do that action again

Read AND reported.
