Caravan master... should be stronger

[The Man of the Moon]

Frecuently, a mob encounter lured by a runner character player going careless towards Bendir Tower, the Monastery or Guldorand, ends with the complete caravan slayed.

The caravan crosses dangerous and ferocious zones... Must a Caravan Master be not alone a good connoisseur of the ways that he must cross, but also the sufficiently strong and skilful as to protect to the caravan of the dangers of the way (an ex-adventurer, for example?)

I ask if would be possible to give him level 15 of warrior (or what could be considered decently enough) and defensive attitude (in order that he doesn't leave his position of the caravan, but could protect himself and to his caravan)

*Dominates caravan master for free henchman*

But yes, joke aside, those guys keep ending up dead. Add a few guard npcs esp to Guldorand. That can whack the brain out of those pesky NPC mobs attacking the place.

For a safer future.

I prefer watching you suffer.

Also I would perfer to see Guldorand defended by PCs, not extra NPCs that as yet, have no IC reason to be there. Everyone getting murdered by Wereboars all the time = less people. Not more.

All praise Erika and Alyss. *Salutes*

Counter suggestion: Make these 'useless' NPCs inflicted with 'fear' debuff, when in combat.

Or at least paralyzed/docile. More often than not, the oxen/commoners/caravan master run into battle that isn't difficult, and get slaughtered due to aggro switch.
