Mob Oddities

[Ashlee]

Sooo I probably messed it up. But lead a mob out of dogzone. Came back, left him dogzone. Realized he still had gear on him from smobbing. Went back, wouldn't let me lead him. So I rented and reconnected, went to where I left the mob, and he was gone but all the gear was on the ground. Tracks stopped at that room and no corpse. I also lost qps. What did I do wrong? I thought leaving mob in homezome prevented qp loss?

When you originally grabbed the mob did you break it off from the patrol? There's only 1 leadable soldier dog and its part of the small sergeant + vet + soldier patrol. The roaming soldiers tend to be in Sward zone. If the mob disappeared when you rented it means you left it in the wrong zone and that's associated with qps loss.

Personally, I find human mob lead incredibly frustrating and unreliable. The Imms upon hearing of this may ultimately decide its bug abuse, but if you idle rent your "out-of-loading-zone-mob" will stay where you leave it and not be poofed. You can then log back on and return to the mob and your "lead queue" will be fixed/zeroed out so that you will be able to lead a mob again. I semi-suspect some southern clan members have been using this technique to leave their mob in more convenient places so that they don't have to walk the enormous distance back to their city to deposit it.

+1 for bringing back the "barracks".

Yeah, got it off the patrol, but that patrol stays in the same zone doesnt it? Or does it wander into an adjacent zone?

I walk multiple mobs from BE every day.

I would love a "send him home" command or barracks FD as nearly all PK is north now.

I hope it is not abuse to linkless leave the mob FD. Can someone speak on it? I don't want to break any rules.
