Title: Slave/Merc "shoot until unconscious" command!
Post by: kraskish on June 24, 2010, 05:33:33 pm
I dont know if it was suggested before...

If its possible it would be nice to add a command for merc/slave "shoot until unconscious" that way followers would act like normal players and imho according to their will and order.

Because you cant go hunting for slaves with your slaves or sometimes your follower will spend precious turns for unconscious enemies (from 0 to -19 hp) rather than switching to real threat if the encounter is bigger than 1...

Oh, sorry then, but if it will get some positive feedback credits will go to you ;). The thing is that almost every suggestion here are aimed at TC and stuff while as devs want to implement more variety they should be consequent with players who spent charisma from their special and want to play in that way, not just being a taxi alt...

lol bad idea. You have 9 cha, take 5 mercs and 1 guy with low lvl.

Radio. You attack NPC ( centaurs, high exp ) and make dot. Low lvl go and kill this NPC.

v. fast exp

Centaurs die at 0 hp...unlike humanoids

Ups Gordulan said, yes, that was what I wanted to say :p Only humanoids would be affected...

I definitely support this idea... whats the point of being slaver, when your slaves or mercs kill every potential victim?

This will also only work on humanoid characters.

Running into a pack (8 max. I think) of ghoul crazies or scavengers.
8*165xp=1320xp per encounter.
Indeed very fast xp.

No offense but ehm, you can easily do that without mercs aswell.  And seriously. Arm any noob with a decent gun, and let him melee burst centaurs. Works fine.
