Recently I had two reds come up to like 10+ of my dragons.
I paraed one right in front of the dragons maybe at most 5 tiles away. They dragons just sat there.
I swear I just saw a patch making dragons more aggressive to reds and now it seems like they barely if ever auto attack.
Dragons dont seem to be auto attacking reds.

I just mention it because two reds had no problem runn up to and around my dragons.
I also paraed one right infront of them and the red just stood there frozen and didn't get mass attacked.

Re: Dragons dont seem to be auto attacking reds.
Mine attacked a red while it was running idle. Meaning I had it attack a monster and when it finished, it walked around on its own without me saying follow me.
Maybe the trick is to just have them patrol?

Re: Dragons dont seem to be auto attacking reds.
Depends how much the red is moving around. Think of the dragons as kind of a Motion Detector.
IMO, they should be tuned up to attack within a second of any red movement within range.
This is how I understand this mechanic, I could be wrong.

Re: Dragons dont seem to be auto attacking reds.
A few months back there was a day or two when I would hop off my mare and it would attack me before my character could even remount. It was so bad that I avoided playing my red for that entire reason - messaged Derrick about it in IRC but did not get a response. Now it seems the timer on the mare attacking is huge. Stealth patch?
I also noticed that if I invis in the Balron room to get the spawn to attack another player (who is standing idle), the Balrons will often take a long time to switch to the new target. Given Balrons work on an insta attack timer, this doesn't seem to make sense.

Re: Dragons dont seem to be auto attacking reds.
if the dragons are attacking another target they won't change target unless they're attacked directly
Re: Dragons dont seem to be auto attacking reds.
Dragons are sloooooooooow targetters. You can run around a wild one and they will not notice you for a couple of seconds.
