Default Is healing/buffing/dispelling an engaged guard allowed?
If we see our town's guards under attack, is it possible to heal/buff/dispel them (per our time period, it should be) via game mechanics?

If so, is it allowed per policy to do this, or is this considered kill stealing or something?

I don't believe you are able to heal or buff npcs unless you charm them. Dispell you could do but it will put you on the agro (and negative faction) list.

I don't think that is true. Dispell isn't considered an offensive ability. It is the same catagory with Harmony, lands on friend and foe alike.

Depending on where you're pulling, it's like doing 300-500 dmg on pull without having to worry about getting summoned. Then you get to add the initial hate cap on top as some delicious gravy.

If the guard is engaged and you help the NPC, that will fall under griefing.

Charming and buffing an NPC is much more of a gray area. It's probably frowned upon, but I will admit that I've gone to Oasis and made ROBO-CROC more than once.

Sorry, should have answered this post. Trying to troll other people's kills on Blue would be frowned upon; do as you will on red.
