Maintenance for the week of April 6:
• ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – April 8, 9:00AM EDT (13:00 UTC) - 6:00PM EDT (22:00 UTC)
We are currently investigating connection issues some players are having on the European megaservers. We will update as new information becomes available.

Devs PLEASE fix critters with hitboxes the size of Daedroths!

OK, I realize it is a snarky way to screw with players in tense AOE situations pulling large groups of mobs. Your carefully times Crystal Fragment proc goes sailing past the thing you were pointing directly at and needed to stun to avoid getting CC'd and smacks into a meek little rat sitting 30 meters away watching with idle amusement.

Having to make sure the red outline shows on your target it one thing, but having these non-combat critters' hitboxes being this large is just stupidly ridiculous.

Many a time I have tried to mouse over a player directly in front of me to see what buffs they are using, only to have "snake" "squirrel" or "rat" be all that I am able to find. Then I see this obnoxious little critter wasn't even between me and the player, but 7 METERS OFF TO MY LEFT!

There is absolutely no reason to have these things walking around with hitboxes larger than the average adult male human. Please fix this ZOS, as I am now hearing reports from friends that melee that if there is a rat or other critter nearby, all their melee attacks are missing their target!

    Forum gave me a "connection reset" message and double-posted. Been having a lot of strange behavior on the forums lately. I think the NSA has me proxied. O_O

    Not just you. Started plaguing me about 10 minutes ago.

    That is something I've been annoyed by a lot since the start. I know those critters can be hard to see / hit normally, but that doesn't mean that they should have priority over normal targets.... often I unloaded my burst on a darn critter because it moved near enough of the target I was about to attack....

    This is a real problem with flying critters. I was killing ghost in Deshaan last night and half my spells would target the rats running around for the rat collection quest in the area. Another problem is charging soul gems for some reason my soul trap spell always seems to end up targeting a critter when I aim for the monster.
