Enemies following to Bindstone??

[LordCove]

This is definetly a new one... I guarantee it... heh.

Trouble had hit lvl 17, so I sent him over to Belinara to test him out against a few things.

The Sharian scouts in the Shara woods got him.
Strangely enough, I never noticed before that if they shoot you, you have to make a Will save or Turn to Stone. Which is unusual, since it they had those items ( Turn to Stone arrows) in their inventory, each one of them would need to be lvl 32 to use them.
But thats not my point, they killed him fair and square and he died, being ported back to High Fort on Dregar to the Bindstone there.

However.... I certainly didnt expect them to somehow "follow" him there and kill him again when he respawned. Now "that" is new.
Could be a new bug... but, still seems unusual. They killed him again, and took some XP off him.
Will be adding a copy of this to Bugs forum too. It seems like an unusual bug, and I thought perhaps a DM had made a little mistake whilst trying to spice things up, but no reply to DM channel... so it must be.

[jrizz]

The ones you ran into must have been from Brooklyn. They dont stop till the job is fully done

So after you re-spawned on the second kill were they still there waiting for you?

[LordCove]

No... not waiting for me.

I respawned in High Fort... Dregar... and moved away from the Bindstone... about two feet... three... maybe four seconds passed as I was typing a Tell... and then they appeared.

It had the feel of when you cross a Transition with an enemy chasing you... and they suddenly appear. But of course, unless my Gravestone made a Transition point... unlikely  

[jrizz]

That is what I mean. After the second death did you respawn? and if so were the bad guys still two feet away from the bindstone?

[LordCove]

After second death I waited a little , then Respawned and they were gone. (( only went "doh" when I hit respawn and realised I would go "back" into the midst of them.. but thankfully, not there ))

To be honest, for them to have "de-spawned"... Im not sure enough time would have passed for them to despawn that quick. It was literally they shot me, I died, ported to bindstone, died again. I would have expected them to have remained a while longer.

[Chazzler]

This kind of occurrence happened to me too during the times of V2 when I was playing Godim Harjumaa. I entered the Ore Hills of that era and in the cave I cast a multitude of long lasting area damage spells (acid fog etc).
My stoneskins failed and the ogres killed Godim and I respawned back to Dalanthar, I noticed that Godim was still damaging the ogres as the area damage spells do not disappear after a character dies, this resulted for some odd reason to a similar occurrence of ogres appearing to the bindstone and attacking Godim, luckily the pawn shop guy was on a fierce mood and helped fend them off so I could dispose of them. (thank goodness for immortal-setting).

I will post a screenshot of the occurrence since I do have one.

[Chazzler]

Oh well, seems I have deleted the screenshot, amongst some others... But I strongly suspect it to be a Bioware bug that launches when you damage something that is on another location with an area spell and the creature of course launches the attacking script, which for some reason brings them to the character.

Edit: A work-around for this would be to sit tight and wait for area spells to dissipate away before clicking respawn.

[LordCove]

Sounding right there Chazzler.

The Sharian guards in question would still have been held in place by a Stonehold and been battered by a Storm of Vengance.

But seems so rare of an occurence so... no loss

[lonnarin]

Level 17 after 3 months?!

*blinks*  Egads man!!! Remind me never to kick your monkey.

[LordCove]

*coughs* Er.... yeah... ahem.
I was surprised too.

Druids are.... well.... a -very- under-estimated class.

[Link092]

I had the same issue with will-o-wisps.... and once again, thanks to the pawn shop man in Vehl, I lived.
