Intelligence of Bogeymen
« on: April 11, 2012, 10:00:58 am »

Recently, I have lined up a couple of bogeymen and ran down a few slopes, on the last slope I saw two bogeymen on two sides, they both rushed to me from both of the sides and made me fall, then the rest of the bogeymen began surrounding me and.... killing me?

Don't worry, they use the same combat AI as any other creature, besides being talented in all unarmed combat skills as well as dodging and observing. Any apparent knowledge of basic combat tactics or knowledge is an illusion formed from coincidence.
That's some aweful luck you've got, though.

Well that and they teleport. Basic hostility coupled with random chance makes for seemingly intelligent situations.
