I think it's how many targets they choose 01/18/2016, 08:18:49 |
I think the way it works is that enemies either have a preferred target or they choose a certain number of targets when they first encounter the party. If there's no value, then they choose 1 target and continue to attack that one. A lot of the time what you'll notice is that even enemies that don't have a preferred target can focus on one party member a lot. This happens when multiple enemies within the same group just happen to choose that as their target when you first encounter (pull/aggro) them. If the value is 2, they choose 2 different party members at random when they first encounter you, and then proceed to choose at random or alternate between those two every time they attack (not sure which). If it says 3, they choose between 3 targets. 4, they choose between all 4. So this way, there is some luck involved and damage gets spread out. Note that the enemies that choose 2-4 party members are usually stronger enemies or enemies that have nasty conditions they want to spread to as many party members as possible. That's how I think it works anyway.
