Escaping into a new area

Post by dak »

I just think that the creatures should be able to follow you! I've found a trick to make the game much easier just run to the end of a area while the enemy is hunting you, and when you run low on hitpoints move to another area,,, you can rest or heal up in peace and the enemy is kindly waiting for you just one step away!

Yes. I am using this also but I think that the monsters are recovering some hit points when you do that.

BW, could you confirm this impression ? monsters recovering HP over time ?

Thanks

Nooooooooo, this is a feature. Running into a new area has saved my butt a couple times.

This was seen during beta testing and teh solution was to allow them to heal a bit when you exit an area....b4 they would have the same amount lost and you could rest and come back.

Should be fixed IMO, ruins a ton of realism

I think its a limitation of the current engine that they cannt follow you.
