Ok let me start this off by saying the gearheads there Are bugged ... It spawn right back after they get killed which is WAY too fast ... also they reaggro no sooner you get out of battle with them ... so it's like a engless battle. i had 6 battle before i got away finally .. Does anyone else think this too or needs too be looked into atleast TY
I agree that the Gearheads' speed makes them particularly annoying. However, you should have a few seconds after the battle when you're intangible. This is provided so you can move yourself to a safe location off the battle field.
Actually I had a pair of problems with them myself. In the first situation I finished a fight and before I could take a step was drawn into another. After that I managed to take a few steps before being pulled into a third fight. This happened one more time when I finally had to flee just get out of the loop.
In the second instance I was standing on one corner of a roof square and the gearhead was on the opposite diagonal side. We were pulled toward each other into the center of the roof top to fight. The second gearhead for this fight was pulled from the next rooftop where the first one had just appeared from.
