Mega Creature Stack

from Elemental Forums

I've been playing the .90 version and am really enjoying it so far.  I like the changes that have been made quite a bit.  However, I discovered a group of Scrap Golems very early on in my explorations.  They were in the Quest Zone the Scraplands (I think that was its name) at the very entrance.  So I quickly beat a hasty retreat.  However, they decided to follow me, but I easily outdistanced them as I was using Tarth and ran through woods to get away.  Then after 30 or so turns that same (extremely powerful) stack of creatures shows up in my home territory and begins destroying me.  I didn't have anywhere near the power I would have needed to defend myself and I was the leading power among all the races at this (still early mind you) point in the game.  

 

I'm not sure if that's supposed to happen but I'm not sure I like it (for obvious reasons).  It was game over at that point.

This sounds like an AI issue. Brad made the monsters more aggressive for Beta 3. This group looks like they slipped their AI leash keeping them near their spawn area.

You should report this issue in the Beta or Support area so it gets fixed.

When I played 0.86 sometimes I saw scrap golems coming out of the water, etc. had to test it thoroughly as I was playing a tiny map, also seen scrap golems appear randomly at other times, so I think its a proper bug.
