View Full Version : Spells: Being attacked by friendly NPCs while using Illusion Iksar

I had a few hundred bone chips and wanted to clear them out of my inventory. I decided to head to the East Cabalis gate in the FoB and began to turn them into Trooper Mozo.

Mind you I am a Erudite Enchanter who is using the Illusion Iksar spell. My faction message with Trooper Mozo is Kindly when using the spell and Threatening when not using the spell. My faction with the SK guards at the gate is Indifferent with the spell and KOS without.

On my third turn in Trooper Mozo game me 7 silver and let me know that I was no match for a champion of the greenblood. I am mobbed by all the guards and die. Run back to retrieve my corpse, my corpse that still looks like and Iksar. I scroll up and I did not attack Mozo, cast a spell, or dispel my illusion. An NPC who conned Kindly to me attacked me without provocation.

I tried again and did quite a few turn ins' before it happened again. At this point I figured it was a bug in the quest because I have been coming from FV and have been heading through all of Cabalis to get here using the illusion without issue. I have sold to Iksar vendors and banked in Cabalis frequently using the illusion without issue.

So I decide to buff some newbies and when I ran towards the gate to buff some and then turned to return to the fields and BAM, attacked by guards again. Retrieved my corpse a third time, again my corpse is still under the illusion and I was not interacting with these NPCs at all, other than being in their proximity.

The crucial thing about this last death is I did not have any NPCs targeted and was not doing any quests. I was simply present. I do not have this issue with any other illusion spells and I have lost quite a bit of XP to these deaths. Is there a known bug that I was unaware of?

I have noticed that the SK guard by the FoB/Cab ZL (not the warrior guards to either side but the SK in the middle past the arch) is still KOS even with the Iksar illusion and collaboration casted... I assume the mob is agro'ing you which then agro's the rest of them.

You were probably aggroed by Crusader Quarg who is on scaled mystics faction (shaman.) They have extra hate toward bard/wiz/mag/enc. I had to turn in a lot of bone chips to get unkos on wiz, 600+stacks. Iksar illusion doesn't help with this

The SK is Indifferent to me with the illusion up.

I was aware that the Scaled Mystics were not a fan for sure but did not notice one of them out there. It may be the case you are right. It looked to me from my text scoll like Moro was the first one to attack me. Though that may be because I was standing next to him the first two times.

There are two roaming crusaders, Quarg (scaled mystics) and Bodli (greenmist) factions.

Many a HT to be had by fellow bone chip collectors at the hands of Quarg/Bodil. It usually starts with Mozo double attack and then one or two HTs.

Well I guess this is not a bug after all. Well I will come back to Kunark someday with a huge pile of bone chips and some extra eyes to keep an eye out for wandering mystics.

Thanks for the advice folks! If I were more observant then I would not have had to die three times.

A lot of unnecessary information in OP. Please keep it short. Thanks

Fair enough. For the purposes of this board define necessary information. Seems to me one only knows the necessary information once you know the cause.
