Darkfall Mob AI

ZekiahZekiah Member UncommonPosts: 2,483

I'm sure the vets have seen this many times but today I saw a prime example of how good the AI is in Darkfall. I was fighting a Goblin Shaman and kind of kiting him backwards to use magic when a Goblin Scout accidentally shot him in the back trying to hit me. The shaman looking upset, turned around and starting firing on the Scout. They fought each other while I finished off the Shaman and then the Scout lol.

Chasing Shamans around is a feat in itself lol.

*scurries off to kill more Goblins...*

     Wow, hahaha, that's pretty cool and realist, even monsters with friendly fire that eventually start a fight among themselves accidentally on stupidity :P

     This is true and happens alot

     

    One of the best ways to PVE solo is keep the meleeing mob inbetween you and the other mobs that are most likely kiting, so its being hit on both sides while you are protected.

     

    Be advised it does not work on a dragon.

    "ROAR"

    "What was that??"

    and 1/3 of my health is gone, my horse is on fire, and I'm trying to hide....trying to run....but no!!! There is no hiding!!! The bastard will kill you no matter where you go! That flaming red vulture will follow you for miles!!

     

     

    Yeah....I'm bitter at the damn dragon.

    Heh, friendly fire is what makes this game unique and fun. I'm always using this strategy while fighting mobs. Keep them in one line and force them to shoot each other :)

    EDIT:
    I hate firedragon also... in beta I had to move from alfar land to Yssam. Died twice half way cause of that bastard :/

    Well, is this game worth it? Is there a trial going on or is it happening in the future?

    If you like PVP, and don't mind that Darkfall is a difficult game, then yes, it is totally worth it. Especially given the dearth of games like it. As far as I know, Darkfall will not ever have a trial.

    Just a reminder...the mobs in Darkfall are not AI controlled..they are actually controlled by Adventurine employees, working at home all day..they just have to controll the mob in a specific zone and attack players when they show up...

     

    The kraken is controlled by me, i work part time to Adventurine...
