EDITED MESSAGE THANKS TO TEMPLAR DANE

Greetings

Not sure if this post has a point? In the future if you could frame your post with a clear intention, I believe your talking about drone tactics? If you could post again with your question or statement, it may help others understand what your intention is.

There is an ongoing issue in faction warfare pertaining to faction warfare mission npcs. They attack anyone who enters the mission. While this isn't an issue for the farmers and their easy PVE activities, it is an issue for the people trying to catch them because......

Typically anything fast enough to catch the bomber, will be made into a wreck by the npcs, who instantly switch to the new arrival. The greatest danger to the bombers doing these missions was, in the past, the anti-bomber bomber fitted with small guns and rocket launchers.

So again, the issue is faction warfare npcs in faction warfare missions attacking their own friendly militia. Before the sweeping npc changes they would not attack someone that had greater than a 5.0 standing with the associated faction.

Now they appear to get huge erections from the thoughts of blowing up the people trying to stop the people blowing them up.

Thank you and have a nice day.



ORIGINAL MESSAGE
Why oh why do they attack us in missions?

We're trying to save them from the heathen mintards and they all aggro any amarr who go to save them.

what gives?

why no love?

more importantly, how is my infamous anti-sb sb supposed to stop these fools.

The new AI is jacked. All the factions get attacked in "Friendly" missions.

On a similar topic, if you are d-plexing a site and release your drones, the rat will aggro the drones. Not you. Just the drones.
So in a sense, no they don't.

Best way to lose standings with aggressive drone settings, I hope.

Bump to the top where it belongs! Irrelevant things like Gallente delusions of grandeur, e.g. having dominance for 1 whole day and pretending its the same as Caldari humiliating them for months should not be ahead of this topic.

Visited an amarr military site with the intention to defend it from vicious minmatar. I even told my two friends who where watching my monitor: "don't worry they're friendly, they won't shoot me. Same militia and... WHAT THE... FRIENDLY FIRE!!"

They did.

If enough people bug report they will get pissed off and maybe fix it in a couple of years.

From the patch notes for todays micro-patch:
Quote:
Issues where Factional Warfare militia NPCs were attacking friendly or abandoned drones have been resolved. Militia NPCs will now always aggress according to their militia relation or if they have bad standings toward the particular militia factions.

Gotta love the 'whoopsie' ... lucky for us that it was easy to reproduce or it literally would have been years of convincing BH's that it really existed.

Never mind. Still broken .. perhaps they only refrain from killing friendly drones which is a step in the right direction but would be nice if they didn't shoot the 'wrong' people as well as their drones.

Huh?

Think about this for a second, do you think the problem is with hostile rats shooting us or friendly rats?
.. and then consider what rats are in missions we might be running.

In case those leading questions still not make your bulb turn on; When you enter a mission opened by the enemy the rats will not only target and fire on you, but they will switch from the enemy mission runner to you.

Missions were easy enough before, but now that mission whores have the entire spawn they are there to kill as backup against people who might do them harm .. fun, fun, fun.

He means he already made his billions during Farm Wars 1.0 aka Inferno "expansion". And unlike some other people, he did not buy a Leviathan with all the money he made. He can afford his low risk pvp for a few years now.

Funny how you need 7 to gank a non-pvper, but then your tackle dies, and your whole fleet loses. Again. As always.

Maybe in a few years we will see an 'attempted' fix.
