Running back from viper shroud to the landing.....

[Upper Trollfang]
A rotting wooden cart stands off to the side of the road, the thick grasses and lush moss nearly covering the once sturdy vehicle. Thick brambles line the sides of the road which thins to a narrow trail as it moves further east. You also see a spear, some studded leather, a giantman marauder, a gnomish marauder, a half-elven marauder and a halfling official.
Also here: Glanvis
Obvious paths: east, west

Glanvis gestures.
Glanvis closes his eyes for a moment as he slowly raises his hands to shoulder-level. You hear and feel a resounding low thrumming sound just as enormous, thick grasses spring forth from the ground at an incredible rate, savagely assailing the area!
The surroundings advance upon a giantman marauder with relentless fury!

Anyway that was in lower trollfang not too far from dangirland. He was apoplectic enough, and maybe he actually felt bad. But I don't like taking apologies from someone who ran a stop sign and totaled my car. It isn't the end of the world, but dammit why can't people keep their mass spells where they are needed most and away from high traffic low level areas? And off of my ass.

Thanks, I needed to vent a little.

::shrug:: He had to take out some bandits. You just had the bad luck to run into the guy with the second-highest ranger CS in the game. He was going to help you if you weren't so sulky.

Also, 635 doesn't compare to an open void in terms of annoyances. It's limited to one room and it takes half a second and it's over.

My opinion is that the only one there that was an ass was yourself. I think we all know how defending escorts can be...you can't dilly around or you will lose the bounty. Just horrible luck on your part. He has very apologetic, LK'd you and looked like he was going to forsake his bounty to ensure that you were raised and I would guess he would have replaced the deed on top of it all. But you got all pissy and wanted to sulk from what I can tell.

Truth is, it happens. Make an issue of it when it happens more than once from the same person.

I did say he was apologetic, I just posted to blow off steam not to piss on the guy.

For what it's worth, those things in bold? Definitely not the same. You were the first one; he made the second one.

I really wish I hadn't sold Glanvis. =(

Miss all y'all, hope everything's dandy!

I'm pretty surprised I've never killed anyone doing an escort task. I spam the fuck out of 1630 with no regard to other people what so ever.

635 is a total waste, much easier to use 619 since ambushers don't shake calm, then spike them one by one.

Ding Ding Ding... we have a winner.

Using mass attack spells for escorts and thinking killing people is acceptable is ridiculous. If you are that dead set on getting your escort tasks in, buy ewave imbeds.
