Only happening since latest patch, but have had 3 games in a row on myself and another zealot mid match-
The witchy beast suddenly gets provoked and telecharges to somebody nowhere near them. Not from a rogue shot fired, but sometimes through a wall and last match our zealot pulled one down the end of a road we were all clear of. I’ve only noticed it happening to zealots, dunno if related.
Yeah this has happened to me a couple of times recently too. Wasn’t anywhere near DH and was even facing the other way. Still came after me. Playing as ogryn, not zealot.
Genuinely a classic from the UK 80s.
I’ve no doubt you’re right about what you say, it really was just an excuse to drop in that TV show.
We had a period, I’m going to guess at around March 2023 where daemonhosts seemed to spawn on you, but I’m confident those days have gone as exciting as they were. I suspect in your case, you/your mate caused the initial aggro (and got a +aggro score), then someone else triggered it, but they didn’t have the higher aggro score. Purely hypothetical, but likely how FS decide who gets attacked.
You can aggro a DH with abilities that go through walls. Ogryn’s taunt for instance can trigger it through walls and especially from above. It’s basically a sphere around him. Had this happen on the second floor in the beginning of one of the assassination maps. it had spawned in front of the medicae and I managed to taunt her from the level above as we did the event.
