NPCs can actually colapse from exaustion. I learned this when I was being chased thru Caladon by an Elite Bow Guard after I failed to pickpocket his gold. I hit him a few times with my hammer then I ran like hell. He chased me and he only had about 4 Fatigue. We got outside Caladon and we were STILL runnin, all of a sudden he just keels over. I go up to him and hes KOed. I had about 3 health left so I didnt wanna pick a fight, he got up about a second later and as he was I konked him with my hammer and killed him. Pretty wierd.
I didn't really have any exhausted enemies - they were usually dead long before they passed out! :wink: Virgil passed out a lot though! :evil: Used up all his energy on a certain sheep no doubt...... :x
Lol, I was going through Hardin's Pass, and Virgil and Gar both seemed to be slipping constantly. I think it might have had to do with dread armour, cause they where both wearing it, and neither where low on fatigue(not to mention that I stayed at an Inn reletivly reciently before hand).....please excuse my pointless babling....I'll stop now.
Didn't you notice all those ice patches on the floor in the middle of the snow? If you run across them, expect to fall down every now and then...
