Attacks Single Out A Target? - Dual - 2009-09-19
[COLOR="Green"]I was in CWK today, and noticed that, even though I had the warrior boss and theif boss standing together with the archer boss, I was always hitting the archer boss when using Blast.
I've also noticed this when I was attacking HH in Evil Dead, making every hit of Power Stirke land on him, even with the Elderwraiths in my way. I would usually have to kill a couple Elders first before it would start to work, but after that it was perfect.
How does this little trick work?

Either has to do with spawn time or which target you attacked first.

Oldest monsters spawned have preference to be hit.

Sometimes however when I walk away from the gaggle of CWK bosses, the preferred mob of choice switches. For example, whenever I use Blast in the early stages of the boss run, I would be hitting Hsalf. But then when I was walking over to check the status on Margana, then walk back to the other three bosses, I ended up hitting Rellik instead. I'm mystified by that o.O
Oh, and Shidoshi is exactly right. Dunno how the above situation works out though, since they apparently spawn at the same time.

I don't know about the initial hit, but there's a tendency to keep hitting what you're hitting. Try spamming Vampire and you'll get what I mean. Scenario:
- 3 WR staying in front
- Uses max Vampire (which can hit 6 but only actually hits 3) and pushes 3 WRs farrrrr >>>>
- More WRs spawn in between char and the 3 being-vamped WRs
- Vamp spamming continues to attack and push back the 3 WRs, completely ignoring the newly spawned ones.
EDIT: If you, however, stop for a second and 'refresh' Vamp spamming, it now has new targets (which are 6 WRs, the 3 old, and the 3 new)
