When assessing the attack range of creatures or NPC, one has to take in account several factors.
1. There is a resting state attack range, meaning that the attacker does not move, so that the attack range can be thought of as the distance between attacker and approaching homin.
2. With some aggressive creatures, there is a difference between attack range from front and rear. This is true particularly with tyranchas and kipestas. The rear attack range of tyranchas is less than a few meters, bit more with kipestas. But for most creatures, attack range can be thought as a circle.
3. Things become complex when attackers are moving, too. Here, one most be aware that there is a displacement between distance on the server and presentation on the client. This means, when possible attackers are moving towards a homin, they may start their attack though they seem to be still outside their resting state attack range. In fact, it only seems so on the client. Conversely, a follower of aggressive mobs may appear to be inside their attack range, and they do not attack though, simply because they already moved outside it.
