i'm not sure if this has been addressed or not, so i'll just go ahead and post.

when casting on a monster, my character will step in random directions, mostly towards the monster. i am aware that there is a range to cast, and i assure you that i am well inside the range. it will occur randomly even when the character is standing still casting.

also, i've noticed there is a re-targeting issue. if you cast once on a monster, and start getting attacked by another, i would click on the now attacking monster to place the arrow over the monster and begin casting, but it will target the previous monster and send the character running after the previous target even if it's no longer on the screen (usually resulting in a dead mage). this does not occur everytime, but has occured enough times for me to feel that it could be a bug.

anyways... hope this was useful.

did you double click on the monster, because if you did, your charator will try to attack using its weapon, eg the wand or staff or whatever, and this will cause your charactor to run towards it

well i had a similar expirience many times. This random movement is realy annoying but i also saw it occurs mostly when being along with pary i had this issue max 2 times.
And about the targeting. Ye it happens some times but the reason i see in this is couse We try to executethe spell same time we click on the new targeted monster. So the spell still catches the previous mmonster and the click is somehow automaticaly redirected to the previous monster and results in attacking with a meele weapon on it.
I hope this can help in solving this before open beta :)

P.S.
I realy hope the shop and guild interface will be raedy for the open beta tests :)
And one more advice. The chat system realy sux. maybe try adding something like tabs on the main chat so players can talk privately without seeing all those useless messages that are usualy there on default.

I've noticed the same movement glitches, mostly while trying to run away from a monster. I'll run a short distance and then turn around and run back to where I was. It's like I'm running back so that the monster can land it's counter attack, or the game forgot where I'm supposed to be. Sometimes my character won't move to a selected location on the map, but will move if I select a new location. So like, I'm at point A and I want to move to point B, so I click on point B, but the character does not move. So I click on point B again, but the character still does not move. I click on point C, and the character moves to point C.

I'm not sure if the selection error is a glitch or not. I know that if you hold down a hot key then it will cast 2 spells after you release it instead of one or zero. So, if you try to switch monsters between the first and second cast, the second cast will still land on the first monster because it was the one selected when the command was issued.

yea i had the same experience... its so annoying and i got me killed a couple times. so now i just make sure that i only take on 1 monster at a time with no other monsters close to me.

i want mage to do more damage too::::::::MORE DAMAGE
