Tower guard
Contents
Description
This person seems to be able to put up some resistance. These guards will help defend you if you say help.
Tower guard is a NPC that spawns at a guard tower. Tower guards are aggressive against those from the other kingdoms, outlaws, and hostile animals that you ask them to attack.
- If you butcher them, you can get human meat and lose alignment.
- They usually die by the time they are "aged".
For every 10 quality of the tower you will get one guard. The minimum quality required to get a tower guard is 10. There is a maximum of 5 tower guards per tower; any increase in QL above 50 has no impact on numbers and strength of guards.
You can ask tower guards to attack a hostile animal that is attacking you (that you are targeting), by yelling "help" or "guards!" in Local chat window.
Fight Skill
Tower guards have 35~40 fighting skill. They are stronger than brown bears and scorpions, but a lot weaker than village spirit guards. They can gain or lose fighting skill. The limit is either twice or half the initial skill, whether they kill or get killed a lot.
Equipping
You can equip tower guards with weapons, shields and other items. They will remain on the corpse on death. Anyone from the same kingdom can remove these items.
- Jenn-Kellon guards have skill in longswords
- Mol-Rehan guards have skill in axes
- Horde of the Summoned guards have skill in mauls
- All kingdom guards have skill in medium shields
Halloween
During halloween, the tower guard model is usually changed to something spooky. Despite their spookiness, the guards remain harmless to allies.
