Tamed Nightmare Attacking Blues

Post by haize »

Ok let me set this situation up step by step.

- Rode into Delucia on my mare
- Went to bull spawn in town, north of healers
- Saw 2 bulls, Put mare on one, then other (so both were hitting mare)
- Mare killed one, then other
- I walked over and was harvesting leather/meat
- As i was looting, mare attacked a blue npc (assume healer) through the building wall
- Mare flagged grey, i was blue
- I quickly said all follow me and mounted mare

Please ask questions if you need any more info..this is a matter of life and death for mares! PETA will not like this!! :)

I can't imagine the mare attacking the healer through a wall since LOS is required for an attack to initiate. Aggressive creatures can only 'seek' something through a wall but not actually attack. I'm assuming the mare probably aggro'd a blue tamed creature but not sure why it would to be honest.

you know i just thought of something..he was fighting the bulls pretty close to the north wall of healer shack...um do mares mass curse now? i havent been playing for the past 3 patches or so..i may have missed that? this might be the problem..and if so...my bad then..although yoda did not mention this to be a cause...but i just had this thought...something i would expect from a wyrm fighting in town but not a mare unless they got it patched in recently??

Aye, good call on that I think. Mares will mass curse with sufficient magery skill; this was very likely the reason for this. I'm surprised that the healer would not have called the guards, and it may have been the nature of the indirect attack that resulted in him not doing so.
