Post subject:	Skirmish
I've noticed two things about skirmish, one I feel is definitely a bug though it may be to do with ranged combat rather then skirmish alone. The first however, may be a feature in which case I'm alright with; If you are skirmishing, you will not auto assist in any way with combat. Like I said, most likely a feature and I can see use if you don't care who you're group fights since you are after a certain target. The second, is a result of the passive skirmish assistance to ranged combat. Getting dirt kicked wrote: > Your obsidian barbed arrow streaks into a majestic white unicorn!

You load your weapon with an obsidian barbed arrow. I don't think this is a common occurrence, but it is not overly difficult to recreate. In this instance it got my tame killed however after re-targeting a completely different NPC, I'd hate to think what would happen if this occurred while fighting something a bit stronger.

You were searching for a unicorn to shoot. There was a unicorn nearby. You shot at it. If you want to stop skirmishing, type stop.

Post subject:	Re: Skirmish
That is why I posted this. I did not initiate battle with skirmish, I started it with a dirt kick. I had not used to skirmish command in any way aiming for the unicorn. The game had set the skirmish automatically, I'm assuming when I was dirt kicked, so I did not realize I was skirmishing in the first place let alone know to type stop.

Perhaps an echo of some sort . . . "You are scanning the horizon for ____."

Post subject:	Re: Skirmish
If you set skirmish yourself, you do get the echo "Skirmish is set for 'blah'" I'm not 100% sure, I'd have to log back in to check, but I think if you kill your target for skirmish you get the echo "You stop skirmishing." also.

Sure, but there should be an echo if it's turned on automatically, or even an intermittent echo that goes off every couple rounds.

Okay, I will admit there is a weakness to the current system, but I am not excited about making the changes that would be required to fix it for these edge cases.
