Who says all shadowmen are non agressive?
I play a lvl 45 Necromancer, and most of our new quests require an eye/hand/mask or some such off
the shadow men. Well, if I stand next to them too long...I get mobbed. The only safe way for me
to kill them is to pull from a distance.
So thier Scowls at you ready to attack. REALLY means it for me at least. Perhaps I have just
killed enough to be KOS with them.
