Bah, I would find it more effective if I could find a nice open area.. It seems like the designer's intent (seeing how there is a very long, single path to town) to have these things eventually get you stuck in town permanently. I came back from getting the baton, and rode the horse out at full speed, going in a few circles then bolting for town (I left them right near the Shurugeon ruins gate)... But they still were waiting for me when I come out of the town gates..
I mean, I dont mind a challenge, but this is ridiculous. I feel like I did when one of my P&P DMs had Asmodeus chasing my level 3 monk. (needless to say I got killed in record time!
