    They die, but continue to beat away at you or your pet for 10 or so second before mysteriously lying on the ground.

    fix THAT!

    This is what I think happened:

    Before, in the day, you'd kill a monster, and there would be some lag just before it died, like the game had to load up the death animation/sound.

    So they went and fixed that by making the game have a bit of fore-knowledge on when one combatant would die.

    This made the death animations more smooth, but had some quircky side effects:

    - Undead Monsters: Oh they are dead alright, you killed the hell out of them, but there is some type of lag that makes them forget that.

    - Loot Lag: He's dead, he's on the ground, now comon cursor, switch to the little gear already....

    - Battle Destiny: This one is my favorite, since the outcome of the battle is derived a couple seconds before it actually comes, sometimes you can get the XP before teh monster is dead, yet you haven't killed him yet. I have, on multiple occasions, started running away because I see the XP come in, yet I haven't laid the final shot, but as soon as I stop running, no matter where I am at, I hit the creature for the final blow. Kinda funny when it's 5 rooms awa with a pistol sometimes. This one is also fun as a player tho, I have been killed, yet lived to keep fighting for a while. All my buffs cancel, my health drops, but I am still alive...


    Try to fix one little thing and look what happens...
