So many reviews said the AI was stupid!

It's not unique to the Hive either- the Fallen also run if you're high level or on a tear.

I have not seen the Vex or Cabal do it though.

The AI isn't stupid, but it has it's moments (what game doesn't?).

Just like in Halo, if you take out the right enemy first, the lower ranks scramble sometimes. Fun to watch!

I think this has to do with people not playing activities on high enough difficulties.

Probably.

Had the Vex get really nasty the other night. Hobgoblins covering, Goblins warped in, sacrificed itself, giving the Minotaur time to get right in my face.

Also had a lone Minotaur warp from a significant distance and land right behind me. Saw my radar light up, and just jumped right off the building. Too close!

I love the Minotaur's teleport right in your face move. You think you've got them in your sights and GAH! JUMP! DODGE! Never seen one do a move behind me though. Certainly had piles of Vex do a warp cloud in behidn me though. One of the best battles is to turn up the difficulty on the one where you analyze the mind core. On hard modes you get so many Vex all around you. Even my bubble titan was constantly running for her life! :)

Haha that was the mission with said Minotaur.

Has anyone else gotten the "The enemy moves against each other" mission on Patrol? Had that happen on Mars, and found myself in the middle of a giant Vex/Cabal furball. It was awesome.

At first brush, this sounds like obnoxious behavior (mostly because I'm remembering how awful the teleporting Knights were in Halo 4). Presumably it's less like that (a constant function of their mobility) and more like a special attack or something that is done infrequently.

Mostly they just seem to use their teleporting ability to charge you. All vex will occasionally teleport somewhere (including behind you!) though.

And it isn't all the enemies either. Only high level Fallen seem to do it. Never seen Hive do it (that I recall). Cabal don't do it. Vex are the worst offenders, but it's not stupid Halo 4 style it's IMMA FUCK UP YOUR SHIT K? style.

Those Minotaurs give me nightmares. Flickering murderbots, I tell you.

I had something similar happen. I popped arc blades and wiped out a squad of Fallen, and this one Dreg in the back just looks around at the carnage, kneels and then teleports out like a wuss.

Do Dregs teleport?
