Duel a human sometime. No one is ever fooled they aren't fighting the
computer. Really, MOB tactics are very limited, move to target, get weak,
move away. Cast from distance or use bow from distance. Fairly simplistic,
especially when fighting many at once. Monsters will use spells to heal
each other, give you that, but they really don't use the spells they have
that intelligently... thus they are given unlimited mana. It almost seems
MOBs cast what spells they are given at random, to me.

Look at the AI in the current crop of FPS games these days. EQ may not be
Unreal by any means, yet admit EQ's AI behaves about like Doom's did.
