Something very much like this happened to me last night, causing me to
lose my level. I turned in the crafted greaves components and got the
greaves and exp, and all the centaurs immediately attacked me. Guides
said too bad, so sad so, I guess it's back to the birdhouse for me. I
didn't attack (my attack key is f12, so I was nowhere near that) and I
didn't accidentally hit any area spells (the hotkey page I was on
didn't have any area spells on it). Plus, they didn't attack my group
partner after I was dead. I didn't get a chance to check if they were
still KOS to me, since I had my body dragged to the bridge and camped
after I got dressed. I was not terribly happy that the guides
wouldn't res me after such an obvious bug, but with no way to prove
it, I guess they really can't do anything. Anyone else have this
happen on other quests?
