Where mobs belong

Post by Alvinah » Fri Jul 30, 2004 1:30 pm

Hello all :) I don't know how many of you have encountered such an incident before... I was walking one of my evil alts one day along the Trade Way and I came across a Silverymoon guard(on the road). I walked past him, then walked back just out of curiosity. However, the guard said that I wasn't welcome in Silverymoon and I was escorted 'out of the city' to the entrance of Silverymoon. By then, I was really far from where I had been headed to and I had to walk all the way back. *pants* :P

Anyways, I was just wondering if it would be alright if such mobs of a city were to remain in their own cities, where they belong. I do understand that it is natural for a person to want to visit another city, but... *shrugs* Just wanted to know how you people out there feel about this. :)

This is something that has been discussed rather extensively in the past and the answer had come down to this, if the mobs should not wander outside of their city, then the PCs should also not wander outside of their city.

There might be an issue where some of the progs on the mobs need to be tweaked slightly, but there is no logic in saying that any mob should be bound to stay in a single city any more than a PC should have to stay only in their home area.
