So we have all noticed changes in how guards assist in pvp. It seems to be these changes are not classic, guard never actually assisted the "instagator" of the fight.

Lets say for example, target 1 has ally faction, and target 2 has indiff faction.

Target 1 attacks target 2, on live, the guards would just stand there, until target 2 decided to attack back, then they would assist target 1.

Right now if Target 1 attacks Target 2 guards will instantly assist target 1 resulting in a very shitty environment and the entire game has become a grind for faction.

Guards should only assist if the lower faction character chooses to attack back.

Please fix, i'm certain there wasn't like this on live, at least not on vallon zek.

I think you are assuming since there is alot of dark elves at the outpost that it is on the same faction as neriak. I am pretty sure this is not the case. I may be wrong but the outpost is mostly on Venril Sathir faction. so being a dark elf doesnt matter as much.

i am a bad player and maybe wrong.

Can you give me the name of players, names of guards (if you have logs).

I will write a query and ask Nilbog to run it, but I am willing to bet the human had higher faction than the DE.
