It was suppose to be a routine trip along the river. I did not however anticipate that two people on a boat would pull up next to me. One of them was talking in broken English and I try to respond the best I can. What I didn't realize is that the other person move to my other side to draw aggros from ants and two both attacked me starting off with a punch that took out about 60% of my defense total. This gave me a lot of concern. I'm pretty sure that with those damn ants that I would not be able to win so I ran away while forcing them to collide into trees. The reason for running is because ants move at crawl speed so I moved the battle away from them with run/sprint speed while also gaining IP from the closest one passively
After going a pretty good distant from the ants (enough that the aggro would stop I think) I saw a boar and sidewind around it to intentionally draw aggro so I can use its low movement speed to slow the enemy down but it did not do anything so I ran past it and moved so that it is between me and my pursuers. However, when one of the enemy passed by it, it turned and attacked him knocking his defense down to due to moving. I suddenly turn around and fought back. Thanks to the good amount of IP I had from the one that thundered me, I quickly overwhelmed one of them with meditation. The other ran but after about a 30 second chase, I caught up with my and took out his defense with one shot due to 0 weight movement. Looks like I got a bigger LP haul than I anticipated.
