Drop campfire as a marker. Be aware of how far away you are from said campfire.

This has always worked for me and I solo the black dragons in Sieelewood, which, as some of you may know, love to fly off in random directions.

The idea that people could drag these BAMS into town is ridiculous anyway. There are1-shot guard posted outside outposts and towns that would instantly kill any bam/mob anyway. And as someone else suggested. Set up a perimeter around towns and outposts that de-aggro automatically.

its is not just matter of distances, i use to solo some BAMS, and it seems like they glitsh when they fking want! when you are on a group its cool, (not funny) but its cool, you start the attack again and thats it, BUT when you are on solo, and you have been hitting that huge sht for 10 mins and its on 5%, and it glitch!! THAT its the biggest bulrhit EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i agreed, pls fix that

I've actually tried this, but if a BAM gets temporarily stuck against a wall or a tree there is a very good chance it will reset to matter where it is located. If a crab uses the sideways rush and immediately runs into an obstacle, it usually resets because it thinks it is stuck. I've had a fangspawn reset multiple times RIGHT WHERE IT SPAWNED, it reset and walked around 2-5 meters back to its original spot. Oddly, I haven't had a dragon reset, even though they move around a ton.

Don't know about the whole no reset on 10% thing, but yes. Some monsters are bugged or move way too damn much for their reset range and reset themselves all the time.

Also, seems a few monsters have bugged reset range...

Lord Kazzak + Stormwind Keep = LOLS

I encountered this glitch in the Temple of Dagon and the mob would literally reset when he ran 2 feet from where he was, he wasn't a pat, he was a static spawn.

Ovoliths are brutal with this issue, that backward scoot is ridiculous, they'll crawl back to korea if you let them.

Dear EME,

I only know how to run in straight line. Please make game easier for me and totally linear.

Thank You,

John Q. E-z-mode.

Perhaps this game is not for you, then; TERA is very skill-based and not really aimed to casual players, especially at the higher levels.
