NPC Spawn Issue: Centaurs in South Karana

[slayith]

The camp of centaurs at location{150,-2400} are being abused from a good chunk of players from the levels 18-35.
On live they were social, attack one and you had em all.
Although I remember that killing them resulted in no faction change good or bad.
Right now the centaur camp provides a far safer and lucrative place to farm xp than the aviaks, as they don't take a group, or CC abilities. Also the quantities of static spawns as opposed to using a puller or tracker to pull wanderers for singles. Basic risk/reward imbalance that i hope is a simple database query to the cents.

Some extra research shows that they used to use bows as well requiring kiters to keep a larger distance. Also random centaur wanderers would be rogue and were KoS.


And from the wayback machine in march of 2000, South Karana was not revamped yet. http://web.archive.org/web/200104231....shtml?id=3316

Centaurs in general are pretty stupid. They will stop at a short distance and shoot arrows at you. With a good AC, they will miss a lot. Snare/DoT/root/DD/arrows are all means you can safely kite them. Other Centaurs will assist.
