guard wacked from a grey? wtf is this...

Aight so i was was fightin a grey in town. Hit him a few times with spear and when i landed the paralize i jumped off mare and yelled all kill and then BOOM i get guard wacked.

Whats up?

Up until mare got in the fight there was no danger from guards, plus he was grey to me.

Your foe was innocent to the nightmare, so you turned criminal from the all kill.

EDIT: The reason it allowed you to target him was that he was grey to you, but not "grey" to your pet.

That is the dumbest nonsense i have ever heard. why the hell is this legal. the nightmare is protecting me. Any way i could have avoided this and have been able to attack him with mare?

this still seems really rediculous

Yep, thats what would have happened.

The only way to avoid is is to have him flag the mare, assuming he was grey only to you.

It's not dumb.. The criminal flag is tricky, if it was a thief, all he had to do was attempt to steal an "unstealable" item from you, flagging him criminal to you, but noone else, including your pet.

EDIT: This is why I used to LOVE being a thief on hybrid. :quagmire:

a crim is a mother F'n crim, why these UO rules have to be so gay sometimes. if he tries to steal something "unstealable" is that guard wackable?

Not guard killable because he is only grey to you. Plus he didn't steal anything heheh..

This is due to the way a thief gets flagged criminal. This time it was what we call here an "aggro" thief. All they do is try to steal runebooks or blessed items in your pack, get a message saying "You can't steal that," but get flagged criminal to only you.

Then they wait for you to attack them...only thing is if you're a tamer your pets are useless. Never hurts to have a 5x Mage Tamer... heheh

My friend. If the rulesets laid before by our forefathers are not suitable - I am sure you will find Trammel on an OSI shard more to your liking.

I believe so? unless that has been fixed I remember times people being gray and I would attack them.. and they pull mares out of hiding and woop me lol.

And No I wouldn't think it could be bannable, its how it works.. and its been going on for quite some time.

It's not an exploit. It is there to make thievery more dynamic in a pvp environment. You can't have a single murder count in the thieves guild.
