UO Second Age

First of all, whoever left their frenzied ostard in the GH overnight, Imma kick ur ass!

Ok, new rule: If you leave your pet in a guild house or other public guild area, it will be killed before going wild. I walked into the GH this morning and was almost killed by a FRENZIED OSTARD that was left in the GH overnight! It went WILD!! It was not a happy camper!

SO I ran into town to get away from it, and after it killed an NPC, someone called the guards and it was quickly taken care of.

From now on, if you leave a pet or mount in the GH overnight, I will kill it before it goes wild.

If anyone else has another solution, please let me know.

Would you kill a horse or a llama? They arent gonna hurt you.

Could just remove/ban it (remove thyself/ i ban thee) if you are friended to whatever house you go into. Also could have been an outsider's mount, seeing as how the GH is a public building someone could have left it in there intentionally.

Ok, one at a time...

I think it is safe to assume that a horse will not kill you. But one of our members gave a lot of us Frenzies, so that is what I am referring to.

tbo, that post was kinda put up out of anger at gettin the shit scared out of me when i opened the GH door and this thing flew out at me, screeching, and before i could get to town, had me around 30%!

Okay, so if you leave a DANGEROUS pet in the house (Frenzied or Nightmare), it will be killed before it has a chance to go wild.

Yes, I am friended to the house, but it attacked when I opened to the door and caused quite a bit of damage. I have to admit that I panicked and ran the other way. btw, for those who don't know, those things run fast! By the time I could have gotten inside and typed "I ban thee" I would have been dead. I also was not wearing any armor at the time.

Also, if I was to ban it before it goes wild, it would just stand outside the GH until it went wild, at which point it would be a danger to any unsuspecting guild members coming to the house. Not everyone is friended. I have an alt who is in the guild who is not friended, and "recruits" are not friended. If a recruit came to the GH needing a place to rest or heal, they very well could be killed before entering the house, especially if they were low on health to begin with.

No, it was left there after our last hunt of the night. I remember it standing next to my frenz. I, however, do not remember who dismounted it. I think I know whos it was, but I am not 100% sure so I will not point fingers, yet.

tamed animals that used to be aggressive attack when they go wild again?

Either that, or it was pissed about me sitting on its cousin!

As mad as I was, now that I look back, it was pretty funny.

If you attack a tamed animal wont it defend itself?

You had to have it guard whacked? It was a frenzied!

Lazarus wrote:If you attack a tamed animal wont it defend itself?

Probably. I didn't say it would be easy to do, but I would rather fight it on my terms than be surprised by it when it goes wild.

Lazarus wrote:If you attack a tamed animal wont it defend itself?

I'm sure it will, but it is not the same for it to attack you by surprise, than for you to prepare yourself to attack it.

I'm almost positive it wasn't mine, but will check again when I get home just to make sure (I sometimes forget to mount back up before logging out at home).

I agree with the proposed rule, and it is set. If a dangerous pet is forgotten in any of the guild's public buildings, it will be euthanized before or when it goes wild.

I was wearing NO armor, and was caught completely off guard. I was not prepared to fight anything, especially not a Frenz.

I didn't run into town with the intention of getting it GW. I was simply trying to get away. But after it killed the NPC, I had to call the guards before it started killing afk macroers.

False. You should have let it do its thing.

I've never seen a frenzied. Are they fierce?

Ok that was funny, I admit, and I was waiting for someone to say that. But no, I would not want someone letting that happen to me, so I will return the favor.

They run fast, attack fast, hit hard, and to top it off, they make this screeching noise that freaks you out if you're not prepared for it.

I think the only reason it did not kill me was that I was on a frenzied, so I had a chance to run. Had I been on foot, i would have been killed.

Something doesn't add up here.
