Curse

This happened after I killed everything up till the mineral springs entrance, I stopped to take a break and noticed what was happening just in time. They kept on coming too, in streams, and it wouldn't stop until I finally just ran through them like a football player and zoned in.

I tried to attach some pictures, but they aren't showing.

Yes that happend to me/us a few times as well.
We were very suprised that the 1st avicara group just inside mineral followed us through the portal back when after a near wipe one of us tried to escape by zone-ing and that way ressing the rest. Anyways, i kinda liked the idea that u are not totally save by using a portal to zone out, but that the enemys close to the portal can follow u.

Freaking cool!

I hope that isn't a bug. I hope that is just to keep you on your toes (and ensure avicara revenge).

Btw, nice dye job on armor.

Thanks... ya, I didn't really think too much of it, like I needed to send a bug report or anything. It just kind of took me by a surprise. At first I saw a few sort of walking around, and thought, "Nah, I'll be fine" I came back to the keyboard, and was quickly trying to kill them (and take screen shots at the same time). I've seen this kind of thing before, where they're walking around past the portal, but nothing ever came through and attacked me before. lol

No different that the ettins that come through the portal in the pig quest.

SirShadowrunner · Mar 23, 2006, 02:33 PM // 14:33

Yes, I have witnessed trolls coming thru the portals as well,
not good time when you don't expect it.

fiery · Mar 23, 2006, 02:53 PM // 14:53

Um, that's normal whenever you zone in.

Age · Mar 23, 2006, 10:09 PM // 22:09

This has never happened to me before strange things do happen in GW.

Rayne Nightfyre · Mar 23, 2006, 10:15 PM // 22:15

I've never seen this happen in Mineral Springs/Tasca's Demise, but it sounds very similar to the Gypsie Ettins running through the portal from Nebo Terrace into NKP. Wierd, yes, but not that surprising.

I get trolls at the portal near the ascalon settlement in Kryta all the time. Has to do with the prized pig quest from farmer dirk or something.

If your maintained enchantments and such carried over from zone to zone I wouldn't have much of a problem with this. But since they don't then I'll have to say I'm not entirely fond of this if it is indeed an update.

Rainith · Mar 23, 2006, 10:18 PM // 22:18

This also happens with the minotaurs coming from Anvil Rock into Iron Horse Mine.

Theres also etins that come in through the portal from nebo terrace to North Kryta while you do the return the hog quest... or at least there used to be.

Lord Iowerth · Mar 23, 2006, 11:53 PM // 23:53

The Ettins are really quest-related, though ... those damn birds just have a penchant for breaking the rules and ruining people's parties. Devourers used to be my #1 "Aw crap, not more of these" monster ... but I can honestly say there's nothing I hate seeing more now than a clump of Avicara, especially the wannabe dual shot-ignite ranger spikers. I mean, who gives the weapons to these birds anyway?!

I've had that happen to me in the exact same spot too, so don't feel bad ... only I went AFK to make coffee and came back to standing on the res shrine with some confused henchies

BellyFlop · Mar 23, 2006, 11:54 PM // 23:54

Good Maybe they are taking over the trolls spot.

Trolls cant handle that spot.

Dead Phlox · Mar 23, 2006, 11:56 PM // 23:56

Haha, how bizarre! Kind of neat, though. Might've been a little weird at first, I can imagine.

"What is that?" "Where?" "Uh, through the portal...coming straight for...us..."

Matsumi · Mar 24, 2006, 12:00 AM // 00:00

lol, ya, I had the sound kind of turned up when I walked away to get something to drink... then I heard the little grunt noises they make, and some igniting dual shot arrows hitting and came back in a hurry.
