NPC AE suppose to hit other NPCs
 
currently when an NPC AEs it does not hit other NPCs in the vicinity.

It is suppose to.

CLASSIC

That's not how AEs ever worked.

Though agro mechanics from a mob casting on a charmed pet that breaks or vice versa is not classic and intentional. I don't think you can get even get mobs to attack each other if a charmed pet casts/procs a DoT and you break charm.

You are retarded.

Just totally ignore how faction wars get started.

How about you stop posting dawg.

They went out of the way to make NPCs interrupt when casting on former charmed pets. What makes you think they would make AEs hit NPCs, which isn't even classic.

The lava storm fire drakes absolutely hit each other when I played

It's possible I never fought AE mobs until after it was changed. Did it cause the mobs to agro each other? You would think that would be abused and quickly changed.

Uh AEs most certainly used to hit other npcs. It was fun times getting talendor vs 2 guardian wurm battles going.

It would cause mobs to attack each other. It was abused and eventually changed.

You could train WW dragons to the shipwrecked gnomes and set the AE for them to fight the dragons for you. You could train the Benevolence quest giants in WW to Sont/Kland and get them to fight for you. There were instances of Nagafen spawning and AEing a human ragefire causing them to attack each other.

This did occur until the summer after velious was released I think In June 2001. There is evidence in other threads about how in cobalt scar the othmir would kill cobalt drakes when hit by their ae spell.

Obviously this could easily be abused, so maybe it's not a priority.

You guys seem to think this was changed to not work anymore while totally ignoring the fact that this was an ongoing thing even in Planes of Power.

Bastion of Thunder, Rallos Zek pit faction wars ring a bell?


You guys say you are champions of classic. Are you really? Or is that what nilbog wants us to believe?
