You know, here I thought I was the only one having this problem. Why is it that your character does not attack an enemy unless you specifically tell him to do so? My Ranger was walking through a dungeon one day, and was completely surrounded by undead. There were Greater Mummies, Zombie Lords, Ghasts, Ghouls, etc. What I found curious was that he allowed himself to be completely surrounded. Meaning that he didn't hack/attack anything. Just stood there. When the undead started wailing on him, he just seemed to kind of duck, but still just stood there. The only time that he would attack back was if he actually got "hit". The first second that he lost blood, he started going on a killing frenzy. It took him about 10 minutes or so, but he completely obliterated everything. Ok, now, I can understand not making him go after the enemy if they aren't surrounding him, but come on . . . He couldn't move anywhere without facing an enemy. That's weird. It was kinda cool though. I was able to test out some of the spells I have on scrolls though. I kept going through fireball until I used them up. Then I moved on to Meteor Swarm (does anyone seem to think that this is similar to a Balor's Destruction spell? Hmmmmm.) Tried Horrid Wilting, Wail of the Banshee, Wall of Fire, Cone of Cold, Prismatic Spray, etc. I like using Meteor Swarm (my personal favorite *says like the evil dude from the 5th element - LOL). Fireball was pretty cool, but I had to use a lot of them up. What was really weird was that it didn't affect me in any way. I'm from old skool D&D. What I did would have likely killed me too. I ended up with NO DAMAGE. I even outfitted my 2nd sword so I could get better dual action going. This lowers my AC by 7. In my opinion, they should have scripted a character to auto fight if they are completely surrounded. Seems really weird he would just let someone wail on him.
