Oblivion NPC has a minor problem with target selection and threat anolyse.
Once I sniped a bandit in a camp, his friend was looking for the shooter and saw a nearby deer who he assumed had shoot his friend, and started chasing it, I entered the camp checked the body and realised I to did a mistake; the bandit who chased the deer was carrying a orry part so I had to catch him leading to a five minutes chase before he got attacked at an oblivion gate and stopped so I could kill him.

Sneaking in a dungeon I suddenly had an orc running towards me and shouting I shoot and missed but he passed me run, into a side passage and killed a rat. All without detecting me so I shoot him.

Now I have seen something even stupider but also less funny, a bandit dungeon just northwest on the imperial city island has a camp with a bandit outside. I shot him with bow and he noticed me as my sneak went away, but instead of attacking me he attacked a mudcrab at the beach allowing me to shoot him in the back and kill him. Worse went hunting for deer in the same area and the respawned guard did the same.

OMG awesome.
I'm gonna do this for sure

The pertinent question is, did he yell "I've fought mudcrabs fiercer than you!" while doing it?


The funniest moment I've come across in my admittedly limited experience? I (on my borrowed-from-Prior-Maborel horse) was attacked by a pair of wolves. I dispatched one... and the horse was running off into the deep woods after the other, which it had badly wounded. So the whole thing resulted in me, chasing after my horse, which was itself chasing after a wolf it was ABSOLUTELY DETERMINED TO KILL. It finally did catch up and finish it off, and wandered back to the road like nothing happened.

Hit a goblin, which flew backwards and landed head-down in an open barrel. :biggrin:
