KILL a Hogar? As the Chairman of the Society for the Preservation of the Endangered Hogars (Earth Chapter) I must strongly protest this entire thread. There is NO NEED to kill the misunderstood Hogar, in any of its various species.First of all, the Hogar is nearsighted but his hearing is good. So if you see one patrolling his/her territory on Arnika Road, stand to the right side and stand still. When it turns its back, move forward. When it turns, freeze. Don't even turn your head to see if it notices you because your loud clanking armor will reveal your hostile intent. When you reach the end of his marching path, just hold down the arrow key and walk away. He/she will not pursue.
Perhaps the most heinous and cruel sport on Guardia is cage-fighting, wherein a caged Hogar is attacked by a large well-armed party while innocently playing with his shiny objects. Again, a little thought and planning can avoid animal cruelty. IF you need to steal his shiny objects (leaving him bored and grumpy and alone in his cage, try the following procedure. Unlock the cage door EXCEPT for the last lock pin. Wait for the Hogar to pace away from the door. Click the last pin and, if it connects, hit the keypad 0 key to slide sideways to the LEFT so that you are not blocking the door. When combat commences, put everyone on guard except the people casting blinding flash or throwing flash powders. Use as many caster/throwers as you can. Once blinded, the Hogar will either flee deeper into his cage or out the door and down the path. In either case, quickly enter the cage, steal his toys and sneak out again. Enter the sprite cage, close the door either during combat or wait for the Hogar to disappear and combat to cease.
Now you are inside a cage and the Hogar is out. An unsafe situation? Not at all !! Lie down and take a well-deserved nap (or two). When you awaken the Hogar will be in his cage and grumpier than usual. Check the area for hostile creatures and when everything is quiet (no stupid Trynnies either), slip out carefully whispering "Nice Hogar, Good Bobo" in a soothing tone and slide carefully towards the Hogars door. Carefully reach the edge of the door and gently close it. You have achieved a cruely-free victory, and you will feel the lightness of being associated with giving coins to blind mice.
Has anyone else noticed that sprites and sorceresses don't get bloody as they take damage? Avoiding accusations of crimes against women ?
