My biggest problem is when they camp my workshop about 3k from theed. Maulers and spineflappersometimes are within striking distance of me trying to go to my factories. Luckily weapons dont decay when you die so I dont lose anything there but I have to take me 12 point weaponsmith suit everytime I go out and hope I dont get attacked.
Ill have to try hiring some noob to kill the stuff for me. Sometimes when someone come to get a custom order from me I will ask them to clear out the area for me. I have had a guy die on me once when he came over.
Maybe I should just move into a city but that would mean moving 6 houses worth of stuff and such that I dont want to do. I am hoping this city that poped up near me grows and gets a shuttle becuase I would be on the outskirts.

Are you looting the corpses as you kill them? If you are, try not looting them until you're ready to leave. There are many NPCs who will not respawn, or who at least have their respawn timer slowed down considerably, until you loot their corpse.
Good luck!

I think my issue is NPC humanoids that don't have a 'camp' of some sort. With creatures, you can at least blow the nest away and go on with your business. With the humanoids that spawn every couple minutes, I can kill the entire group, only to have them reappear and start over. Even with sufficient combat abilities, buffs, and armor, I can't use my harvesters if there is a groups of NPC's chillin' where I'm mining, because they might as well have infinite Hams.

Dont loot them till you have killed them all, also they attack in waves.. its generally 5 waves then a new spawn shows up.. just hope its a nice calm one.. like today i killed mauler master/lord spawn and got philosophers /cheer though they did bring disidents but theya re easy to deal with

Lol, yes, they can be vicious
and everytime I try to mine some metals on Talus, those darn vynocks get into the machinery and eat up all my profits.

Yeah, I hate having so many aggro's at my miners, but my bone keeps me protected long enough to get them started.
