Aleca,

In preparation for Velious, somebody needs to really look at faction levels determining if a guard will assist an npc or what. Currently, and I believe it's era correct, anybody whose not KOS is protected from harm. However, in Velious, this is changed to reflect the faction level of the players involved.

For example, player A has ally faction while player B is dubiously. Both are not kos to the NPC's but if player B attacks player A, then the NPC's will protect Player A. This is how Velious on live worked because Velious is a giant faction war beetween giants/dwarves/dragons.
Hrm, so faction-based assist isnt classic? By that I mean If the defenders faction >= attackers faction and attacker faction != ally, guards assist.

Faction-based assist is already pending patch, so if that needs to be backed out, let me know.
