New AI sucks
Schatten017ya its rough. My ai auriel kept face tanking their team when I pinged her to follow. Can't say for sure yet if it's worse.
FuenteStaying in base is intended for AI that are replacing a player now. If you ping them, they will follow you and behave as before, fighting nearby enemies and helping you with objectives.
We are aware of the issue with Deathwing (and Zagara inside her tunnels) and will be addressing it.

FuenteThanks for the report on this. This behavior would be unintended -- they should still attempt to avoid AoE attacks while following you.
I will see if we can reproduce this internally.
Blizz_JeffB20-04-2020 19:15:24FlazeHOTSI know the team is getting some criticism for the flaws (some only perceived and others not) of the AI system in hots, but I just wanted to throw my hat in and extend a massive vote of appreciation for continuing to improve these systems over time. The AI has certainly improved over time.
FuenteThanks for the kind words u/FlazeHOTS!
We are definitely making forward progress with each iteration. We absolutely wish it could be faster as well, but are trying to be careful as we go (and also balance supporting all the new non-AI related content we are making!).
