| so i did some testing on which BST pets have ranged attacks and how they behave with range from the target. forgive me if someone already did this, but i couldn't find it anywhere. i was ball-parking these distances based on how far away from the striking dummy my pet seemed to be after i used Place to put that over 40 yalms away while in Guard stance, then used Capture the dummy from the maximum 10 yalms distance. all of the pets that have a ranged Attack capability seem to have 2 distinct ranges: a Maximum range from which they can attack, and an Advance-to Range, which they will close in to and remain unless the target moves. to clarify, when i placed my Opo-opo at 50 yalms from the striking dummy, then used Capture on the striking dummy from 10 yalms away, the Opo-opo runs towards the dummy, fires its first ranged Attack from a distance of 20 yalms, then continues to close in until it's roughly 11 yalms from the dummy, then doesn't move any closer. if i were to start the Opo-opo 3 yalms away from the striking dummy, then have it attack, it would NOT retreat to a distance of 11 yalms, which is why i'm opting to call this metric 'Advance-to range'. i plan to do more testing to get exact Max and Advance-to ranges with some markers on the ground, but wanted to share my findings so far. as far as i can tell, every pet that's not in this list has a Max range and an Advance-to range of melee, or roughly 3-5 yalms, depending on the size of the pet. https://preview.redd.it/0bcyivjdb6t...bp&s=ec1ef6e5ae59cb46a125f375fc74553c2af2b4d7 submitted by /u/CandidateWorried1952 [link] [comments] |
