Using the skeletal claw can drag a target in to a wall tile.

That looks like a rare. Did it have wraithform?

Didn't check, it might. Killed him too quickly to notice. Yeah it was a rare, so perhaps.

Yeah, probably had wraithform or what-have-you. The way Bone Grab pulling works is it tries to make a line from the target to the source, and the target moves according to that line. Gameplay-wise, this makes it so the main character isn't suddenly pulled to an actor it can't see, as that could be quite surprising and disorienting. The downside is if you Bone Grab an enemy that can't see you, then it doesn't get pulled all the way to you. Heh, if only we had symmetric LoS, all of this funkiness and deciding from which line to move (target to source or source to target) could be avoided ;)

I sense a great disturbance in the svn. ;)
