Wazzamaniac Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Hello everyone, our tribe just made our first mek on extinction. The mount is really awesome, however when you try attacking with the sword, the thing struggles to hit anything with it, maybe 1/10 swings actually landing, especially on small dinos, making it not very viable as a combat mount. Heck, I couldn't even hit a mammoth! I don't know if it's the actual mek or server lag, but this seems to be a big issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomiDarko Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I encountered this problem as well. I think the Mek isn't worth the materials. 14k health? My unleveled bred Rexes have nearly the same. Fighting smaller creatures with the sword? NEVER ever try to fight a Direwolf or worse, a whole pack! They brought my Mek to 500 hp in less then 5 seconds and I had to fly away. Shooting missiles? Not worth their cost, too. They're pretty expensive, the damage isn't that great and aiming is very tough. For now my Mek stands in front of my base as decoration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demerus Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 odd, I was testing in SP around the wastelands and it didn't seem to give me any issues. Maybe high ping does play a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wazzamaniac Posted November 16, 2018 Author Share Posted November 16, 2018 Bumping this for visibility. It's impossible to reliably hit most dinos with a mek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazzamaniac Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 Bump again. Before this last hotfix the mek had a bug that causes it to do an obscene amount of damage. This was fixed, however this compensated for the 10% hit rate it had. Now its ACTUALLY useless for fighting dinos. Please fix the hitbox! Its ridiculous and impossible to fight anything!!!! @Jen @Jatheish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
