I aggro'd a barb king on accident IN A WAR ATTACK

NVM webbie explained it.


I don't know how I can prove it, since I do not have a capture card or anything that would allow me to save it as a video and show you guys, and that is why I am posting this. I am looking for ideas on how to prove this happened, because it ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ME OFF.

I did a hog attack in war as I usually do, but this time, when the hogs got out of the defending barb kings range, the barb king STILL followed! It was clear ACROSS THE ENTIRE MAP, WAY OUT OF ITS RANGE, h@cking away at all of my hogs. This was DEFINITELY the difference between the 1 star I got and the 3 stars I should have gotten, since the surviving 2-3 hogs cleared out most of the defenses anyway.

I am ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and would like to know the best way to report this so it NEVER happens again.

This is expected.

No. The barb king is supposed to stay in his range now, as of that update that nerfed the heroes a couple months ago.

I'm wrong. nvm.

If you watch the attack you will probably notice the king did not actually kill any hogs.

The designed behavior of the heroes on defense is to aggro onto units that are within their range. Once the king is aggro'd he will follow that unit until it is dead (even across the map).

I'm not saying this is right or wrong but its how it works, hogs is basically the only unit that you will see this on since they target defenses first, move quickly and have enough health to absorb a hit or two from the king especially under heal.

How do you not know this as a TH 10? ♥♥♥♥

How do you not know that a barb king will chase a troop it targets in its range until the troop is dead. Once the hog dies, he won't retarget another hog until they re-enter his circle. The op was over reacting, wasn't the dif between a 3 star and a 1 star.

Nothing to prove, this happens to me every time I raid with hogs.

You seem to be right. It was hard to tell from the replay because the hogs were grouped up, but I suppose the hog that the bk was hitting never died. Thanks for explaining. This was the first time I've ever seen this, its weird.

This was on Allclash too recently, I read about it. The title of the post is Barbarian King attacking outside his range, and like you, it was against hogs too. The explanation has already been provided, he will follow till the hog it targeted dies

I think we're all forgetting that the main reason was because the Burger King guy got cheesed off with the Hog rider saying.

I had wondered why the enemy BK chased my hogs to the other corner of the base. It happened sometimes and at other times he would just go back to his altar. It is good to know the explanation. Thanks.
