<p>I approve of this product and/or service.</p>

<p>I experienced this bug many times as well and just shrugged it off as just a visual issue and did not notice any difference in my ability to fight.</p><p>Did it affect gameplay at all and reduce the abilities of the player?</p>

[Remi]

<p>Yay!</p>

<p>Some said that it was a big problem if the mob was a scout and they got rooted with their back to them.  I personally did not run into that specific problem but I did get tired of fighting with my bad to them.</p>

When it happened it took a second for me to see my combat log chat window fill with red you cannot see your target spam, which meant I was not damaging the mob. If a caster you'd probably miss it</p>

<p>HA HA... they are bribing people to use the DF. <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/97ada74b88049a6d50a6ed40898a03d7.gif" border="0" /></p>

Not only was this annoying as hell, it was actually giving me problems while playing my bruiser. Since so much of his dps is based off of autoattack.
