Npc's in the game and game issues

[ex8404]

I would like to see the aggression level back the way it was last summer also. Somewhere between where it is set now and the way it was set last month. I never liked the "swarm" effect. Realistic? Sure. But I don't play cartoony video games for reality. I get enough reality at work, when I watch the news and when I sit down to pay some bills... But the swarm made it really hard for my new baby pirate to solo a couple of starter quests...Like getting an Undead Brigand in the Murky Hollow (?) and trying to stay alive as up to 5 Brigands rushed me and my poor little level 11 baby pirate...Never thought about it much with the mastered pirates...

But I have always thought that a passive "stealth" skill would be a good addition to our pirates. Something that lets you be a bit more invisible to land-based enemies. Like 20% less like to be attacked. Like all skills, pirates would have to manage points depending on what they wanted their pirates to do...

Just thinking out loud...
