Attack Circles

[Prater]

I've had two cases where I have been pulled into battle when I am several ships lengths outside the attack circle.  The first one I had clicked attack, and made sure the enemy were well outside the circle.  The second case I was outside the attack circle of another by several ships lengths but still pulled in at extreme range.  I f11ed both cases.  If I have had two in a few days, surely others are having the same issue.

I thought such things can happen due to ping difference?

Sure, but I don't know that a difference of 100ms could cause the distance discrepancy I am talking about.  I've had it where I am barely on the outside I get dragged in and that is definitely ping related, but this is several 1st rate length distances.

Yes it's very annoying especially when you are in a big group... you get pulled in and no one else does even though you're grouped up and bunched up on the OW.

It just happened again.  I was outside the circle, the timer had stopped for about 2-5 seconds, and the instant I got in attack range again I was pulled in.
