Mobs moving while player stand still, anyone else seen this?

[DarkLimpan]

Why are many mobs having this behavior? Anyone know or seen this happen, too?

After some testing on both retail and beta, I've come to the conclusion that it is my Swipe (both cat and bear form) that triggers this behavior.

My youtube recording: /watch?v=nlyCcodTRxY - one example on beta of a boar in stormsong, one of many.

Never seen that before sure is weird.

Happens quite a lot with my tank bear and it's annoying af. I think it is when the enemy has a big hitbox and it keeps moving cause the game thinks it's not in front or in melee range.

Never seen it except at the last boss in kings rest once he mounts his raptor.

Its trying to outmaneuver you.
Its the brand new flanking AI blizzard put in.

Or its a buggy collision box that oversized/undersized models often have.

I did test this behavior by hitting other abilities other than Swipe several times, like Trash/Maul/Mangle, and nothing happened then, until I hit Swipe. Then it triggered instantly. So I feel it has something to do with the Swipe attack in some way, perhaps the animation of it?
