hiring champions

from Elemental Forums

i'm sorry if this has been answered but i cannot find a post about this here.  for some reason early in my game a wandering champion attacked me.  after i killed him  a message stating that i was a monster popped up.  now i can't hire any champions at all.  what gives?  why was i attacked firstly, and second, why do they hate me for defending myself?  oh, and third, is there anyway to change their perceptions of me?

 

thanks for your patience.

You need to differentiate between real champions and champion-like monsters. If it says "Adventurer" in the description it is a champion for hire. If it says "Creature - adventurer", it is a monster for killing.

 

So if he attacked you, it was the 'creature' one. You can tell by placing cursor over him - you can only hire those that show a speech bubble. If you cannot hire any in your game means you are only running into monster-ones, keep looking for the real ones.

If it attacked *you* and you got penalized for that, it sounds like a bug of some kind. Attacking the wandering people is one thing, but being punished for something out of your control (like a mob attacking you) is pretty silly.

ahhh. thanks for the replies.  yeah, they are the creature-adventurer.  i didn't realize that was different.  my first game and all.  i don't know why i got that message from the first one that attacked but hopefully it didn't affect my game any.

 

thanks for the clarification.
