NPCs shouldn't infuse

Post by Wassail »

It's a player win condition (though cf also, my arena manifesto thread) so weird they infuse, no? Plus there's NPC population imbalances so I imagine there's more demons running around in Cord than the others.

I agree, it's silly. However for any avid psychometry users seeing NPC xp-infusion numbers might still be helpful. So perhaps the NPC infusion could be left in if possible, but have it be cancelled "under the hood" or however that's supposed to work so that it doesn't affect the actual PvP part of the conflict.

How are the NPCs going to level if they can't Infuse? I'd rather see NPC angel vs NPC demon implemented first (prace bets naow).

If NPC numbers are equally split across demon-transcended-angel the the net result of their Infusion should be zero?

Agreed that npcs should not have an impact on infusion. they aren't real!!! also net infusion prob depends on how often they are hunted? I hear they gain xp when you attack them... so some will generate more than others

Idk how it works but surely its possible for them to gain XP but not infuse. NPC numbers are not the same as you can see by perusing the default faction levels. Neutrals especially are way lower.

Also even if they were equal it's the PRINCIPLE of the thing.

Wasn't hard to code, pending decision on whether this'll go into next patch
