' Wrote:Well it's not as if NPC are going to totally wtfpwnrape someone. It's a tiny bonus at best, and more in the spirit of RP + locking bases. NPC (with the exception of battleship patrols) rarely any effect. I've seen dozens of traders hostile to Corsairs fly to Crete, drop their cargo of food rations, and leave, the whole time under fire from corsair NPC, no significant effect on him. It's not as if /attack is going to significantly affect fights, is my point.
Corsair NPC are more than a tiny bonus. At least in Gamma. Each has mounted at least 1 Rapier. Multiple the demage by those by 10, add the Salamancas and you have a little angry swarm on your six. Most of the damage i get while fighting in Gamma with Corsair NPC nearby is done by said NPCs, not by the players.
In a brilliant tactical movement, i charged backwards.
