Thread: Aggro on Poisons?
dont know if this is a bug or not, but last night i was walking away from anchorhead to a shop 1000m away and I ran into anAT-ST. I figured what the hell, I've never tried my poisons on an AT-ST before. Threw my first health poison, no resists, the poison starts ticking and no aggro. I even had an overt imp walk by me and nothing happened. Either this was a very nice imp, or I had no TEF.
So after about 20 minutes (my poisons weren't the greatest), I finally got the AT-ST down to about 500 Health. I threw one last poison, and was gonna wait till he hit a 100 before attacking, but after I threw the last poison, I accidentally double clicked on him. One shot, I was incapped, and he came and gave me db. I sat there and watched the poison finally drop him.
It was nice to know that I could actually solo an AT-ST, but I was quite shocked that I didnt get aggro'd. Later that night, we went on a trip to hunt rancor's on Dath. I was keeping my distance, tossing my poison and still not getting aggro. I did die a couple of times, but thats cause I wasnt paying attention and ran right into the rancor or I was sending a reply to someone.
The other day before the patch I poisoned some yellow con's, and they aggro'd me right away. So has anyone else noticed this with any mobs, etc? It's nice not getting the aggro, but it just doesnt seem right to me.
Critters will agro
NPCs will not agro
PCs who are not already attacking something else will agro (PCs who are attacking something else can still attack you, they just won't switch targets automatically)
I was wondering the same thing!
I have not tried my poisons out enough to know for sure but.. There was a good mix of creature lairs and NPC's next to my house... I was on my way to town so I set a health poison on them... And waited....no one came at me.... I did it again... they all died... I ran to town...
They were a mix of creatures and2 NPC, types one strong andand oneweak. The weak ones all fell after about6 seconds of the first poision. I thought someone else was attacking them! They were like farmers or something. Oops! Sorry....
