Subject: Re: Targetted?


Yeah bards are kinda skewed. I tend to have gnoll soothsayers or
flamepaws start casting on me when I'm sitting around healing, though
they are fighting some else, and several times mobs have switched off
the group they were attacking and decided to go after me. About the
faction bug, yeah, I get it too. Its not exactly a bad thing for faction
in HH ;). It seems that any mob we pass that dies will give us faction
for some reason.
