Admiral Woodpecker Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 @adminI have been hunting 'elite' Ai when I spotted a Wapen +1. When I first clicked on it it displayed a window showing it to be an 'elite' Ai (skull and bones). I have sailed a bit closer to it, clicked on it again and the elite symbol disappeared! I have followed it for a minute, clicked on it again and it was 'elite' again... First time something like this happened to me. It begs a question: when an elite Ai ship/fleet spawns somewhere, does it stay elite until it is sunk or does it lose its' 'elite' status at some point? 1
Jan van Santen Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) This happens quite frequently, even players can get that fake elite status: Edited June 21, 2020 by Jan van Santen 1
Admiral Woodpecker Posted June 21, 2020 Author Posted June 21, 2020 Forgot to mention that when I tagged it and entered the battle it turned out it was actually elite.
Tiedemann Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 I have bug reported chases like this 2-3 times with the AI fleet selected. Skull symbol only visible to some, but not all players. And when we re click it then the symbol might disappear or appear. Very annoying bug. I tried to attack one just to test, and I was convinced it was a real Elite NPC because it was a hard fight I was in 3. rate and elite NPC was two 2. rates), but there was no elite NPC loot. And in hindsight if it was a real elite NPC I would probably have lost that fight.. xD
