Wonder what they (FC) were doing under the hood there to begin with? Cant think of anything that ties to the chapter release??? ---

Hmm… I was playing the other day spaced out while chatting with a friend in party… ran right off a cliff and didn’t take as much damage as I thought I would. It was pleasantly surprising actually. 🤣 ---

My guess is they were probably trying to tweak the friendly fire feature a bit without making it too noticeable … and messed with more than that by accident. It could be a result of the temporary alliance of the Hero companions before they join as actual thrall followers too. Funcom may have been trying to cut down on potential friendly fire with them as well, especially if they can get knocked down by enemies. I play on PvE so I would have never noticed if not for my own falling, this topic, and the data dug up by @Xevyr ---

I wonder if that has anything to do with thralls quit attacking mobs in the middle of a fight. It may think the mob is a “friendly” until they take damage from it. ---
