Highpass Weirdness

[Daldaen]

Just had a weird occurrence in Highpass. I turned in some stuff to despawn Stanos, then manastoned a bit and sat down. Exact logs:

Which would be normal if I were KoS to them or did anything to upset them:

[Fri Aug 15 08:10:08 2014] a Highpass citizen kindly considers you -- You could probably win this fight.
[Fri Aug 15 08:10:12 2014] a smuggler kindly considers you -- he appears to be quite formidable.
[Fri Aug 15 08:10:18 2014] Crenn Salbet kindly considers you -- You could probably win this fight.
[Fri Aug 15 08:10:19 2014] Beef kindly considers you -- You would probably win this fight..it's not certain though.
[Fri Aug 15 08:10:26 2014] Anson McBale kindly considers you -- looks like he would wipe the floor with you!
[Fri Aug 15 08:10:27 2014] Crenn Salbet kindly considers you -- You could probably win this fight.
[Fri Aug 15 08:10:28 2014] Wres Corber kindly considers you -- You could probably win this fight.
[Fri Aug 15 08:10:28 2014] Barn Bloodstone scowls at you, ready to attack -- You could probably win this fight.


They were all stacked up together so I conned everything in the pile. The only mob that is KoS is Barn Bloodstone, That aside, he didn't even aggro me, it was the smugglers. Nor did he get a hit in on me when I died.

I'm not really after a GM rez or anything like that, just curious if someone knows what happened here, science and learning and whatnots. Is there a special smuggler on a different faction table that I didn't con?

[Rhambuk]

looks like the named assisted the smugglers when you got low hp agro.

[Daldaen]

I wasn't low HP aggro and everything that assisted on me conned Kindly... I made no action to aggro them.

[Rhambuk]

ah thought you went to low when you stoned and sitting would have caused aggro. yeah i see where smuggler is on your list now i missed it earlier.

Try recreating it a few times dald :P

[Mac Drettj]

Looks like you hitting yourself caused guard agro to assist you in fighting yourself lols.

Manastone had better faction than u

[Jaxon]

I went to an amiable Freeport guard, nuked myself to 15% hp, sat down, and was unable to get aggro.

This was a bug I actually posted before... http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58080

But they aren't guards, this isn't a PvP server and there was a delay of 4-5 seconds before they attacked me.

[Velerin]

Probably initiated by the Dial a Port thugs.

i know, but clearly the manastone text "hitting yourself" is causing guard assist

your link has the same scenario and i see nizzar commenting on nuking himself and guards attacking him

[Daldaen]

But why the 5 second delay until I'm sitting down that they jump me?

[Mac Drettj]

were they green cons?

[Daldaen]

The smugglers were, Anson was obviously a yellow con though. And green cons save a harmful act committed near them in their memory and then later on they will assist on you if you sit?

[Mac Drettj]

green con agro is always weird

for example sola, green con gob will attack u right away

other times green cons might not care about u until you sit next to them

...just throwing ideas out there

maybe it's the difference between ready to attack and threatening greens?

maybe its not the manastone that triggered it at all, but only the green con agro and agro chain passing down to everything in it's radius

[Erati]

im just enjoying Dald being owned by the very rogues he decieves and tricks on a weekly basis by falsifying the "epic" quests of young rogues through turning in major milestone components before the young rogue turns in his own....tricking Stanos himself to hand over Ragebringers to undeserving wielders

and being a druid orchestrating all this to boot

[Rais]

How do you know Barn Bloodstone didn't agro you? Does he have a agro message? If you sat down he can still agro you and it would pass along to the other npcs.

[Daldaen]

Cause he never hit me or gave an aggro message.

Also I don't remember seeing him in that pack until after I went back to get my corpse.

The only thing I can fathom is he aggroed me but was out of range to give a message (not possible I don't think), then the others nearby assisted him and killed me before I even saw Barn.

Which brings me to another point, should they even assist him since he is on his own faction table? Or should Stanos even summon him to his spot when aggroed? Seems peculiar he is literally the only mob not primarily on the Carson McBale faction
