Please add an "auto friendly" option that keeps you from attacking people you have greeted. Cabal members and allies would not be targetted included those you are grouped with and so forth. Without it you would have free game, which I think should be an accessible option as well.

Uh, no. People greet enemies, I mean unless you never RP.

Hence why you could toggle the option of attacking "friendlies". Of course you could remove the greeted part and only filter by alliance, truce, war and group.

Or just make it so that you can't target people you have greeted by their adjective.

I haven't formed an opinion yet about this issue. But I did have this thought:

Wouldn't Finney's intial version (and some suibsequent suggestions) be a huge boon to rogues? Seems to me that instant backstab kills would not allow people time to target the rogue. With no auto retaliation from group members this means a rogue can pop people and vanish with impuinty. Thats not a good change in my view. N_G

Auto Assist is fine.

Combat needs to be adjusted if you don't want insta-gibs, but a 9 on 1 group should pretty much insta-gib them regardless.

Isn't that kind of what rogues are supposed to do in the first place?

Or players could simply type "kill <enemy>" or "cast 'harmful spell' <enemy>" and avoid getting backstabbed.

speaking of targeting issues, one side would be fixed if you could target using ''s

for example:

Kill 'agile male half-elf'

so if you have an agile male human in your group, you can dodge that.

Im not sure if thats easy to do, though.

This would make necromancers with armies of wraiths angry as hell.
