Steel General Posted February 20, 2022 Report Share Posted February 20, 2022 I'm not complaining - I think it's awesome. But, I'm not sure it's intended. So, I'm sneaking on top of a 2-3 block tall wall, lantern in hand, and swinging a sword at drifters at the base of the wall. Occasionally one will try to hit me with a rock and hit another drifter instead, which then turns and swings at the thrower - a melee ensues and continues until only one of them remains standing. It seems as though they refocus on me if I stop sneaking, though I'm not sure that was consistent. Unmodded 1.16.3 (stable) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornet Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 I believe friendly fire turning drifters against each other was always intended behavior. It just happens more often now because the derps keep throwing rocks at each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I killed a fair few of'em, but there definitely was a lot of friendly fire as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
