I sound like a broken record with all my ranting about the karana zones changes.
Today we take a look at a hermit or rather the new higher level pathers that will kill anyone attempting to camp a hermit!
Exciting!

With the Nov 6th, 2020 patch they added a higher level A Tesch Mas Gnoll from the north west that will path around the hermit wall.
It seems to path back to the hut every 6-10 minutes and cons threatening.
There is a second A Tesch Mas Gnoll from the south east that pathes up to the wall and stops on it's southern side for a very long time.
Additionally there is a A Treant which pathes near the hut on the east side.

All and all, Two to the chest and one to the head for a hermit camp in South Karana.
Maybe now the hermit can get some peace and quiet for a change.

I've been in South Karana a really really long time. Maybe longer than anyone except maybe maybe Brad McQuaid, I don't know. But... I've been in South Karana a really long time, okay? There is a CYCLOPS... that goes through the hermit. Can ya believe it?

You're talking about gnolls and a treant, when we got a CYCLOPS running amok through there. It's a terrible thing. It shouldn't happen to any elf every again.

Not sure if classic, but that spot was never safe.

It's possible to med in a safer spot away from that hermit guy and his body guards. He is bros with the gnolls.

Seems the stone wall blocks line of sight. I guess I didn't investigate this close enough.

careful about the door and i think the cyclops always ran thru the wall :(

The hermit clearly doesn't want to be bothered. Good riddance go play with the lizardmen on kunark.

this is how i camped the hermit on my dark elf wizard after being killed twice by the stupid cyclops. this was a couple of years ago.

my point is, the hermit camp was never safe. maybe it's more dangerous now? but i mean, you needed a solution for the cyclops anyway? and that solution probably works with the new problems anyway? so I don't see that as a new problem at all...

TLDR; git gud

People enjoy tormenting me, that's my theory.

i do

/target a_
/[whatever hide is]
/target Mynamehere


if your target switches to you, you aren't hidden

works decently unless there's no mobs around to /target

A werewolf also paths through the hermit enclosure.

Praise Amun!

His name is 'Enry. 'Enry the 'Ermit. Don't let his door hit you in the face. It's best to knock from a ways back with a handful of stones and bring some rations to share.
