I'm not the only lowbie who has transitioned into the low roads, a relatively common traveling area no matter your level and been destroyed in seconds by a haste, and serious chugging 4 apr elite piece of bullcrap as a level 6, which, even if i tried fighting, would kill me anyways without their sneak attacks- oh and I was fully buffed too. These NPC's are redundant without Magnatz's blood bounty. Let's please remove these NPC's which are the cause of so much grief and anger among the lower level community, thank you.
I feel your pain.
I'll be conducting a review of spawns generally; but it is true that other NPCs out there might have reason to desire blood from wanderers.
The greater issue is that it's not good to transition onto any dangerous monster.
