    Title: Siege mercenary NPCs attack me after I kill the cabalist...?
    Reproduction Rate: Not sure (I think its 100% for Temma)
    Blocker? No
    Details: I did several sieges last night. At the end of the siege I always take the cabalist boss to the main NPC camp to fight it (so the NPC can help dps it down) Sometimes after I killed the cabalist the NPCs at the camp start attacking me. If I ran off and "leashed" them they reset and weren't mad at me anymore (wouldnt try to attack me.)
    It happened both times I fought Temma (ranged cabalist) and I think it also happened when I fought Dolus. Both of these bosses have the weird "disco light" mez ability near the end of the fight so I think it might be related to this. If it matters I fight the bosses in a bludgeoning/tank melee build. I think all of these occurred in the hills siege map.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    User Specs:
    OS: Windows 10 (10.0.0) 64bit
    CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6600K CPU @ 3.50GHz (4) System RAM: 8116

    Update: This happened to me in two separate runs through the Ardoris siege last night (forest siege map). Both times I was fighting the cabalist that teleports you around (No "disco lights" ability. So much for that theory.)

    @mystarr , do you happen to remember if you used the Dig In skill? It was causing NPCs to change disposition toward the player.

    I don't use "Dig In". The shield skills I am using are:
    • Deflect
    • Testudo
    If I am guessing, it might be Testudo since that skill has an effect on allies in a radius around the player....
    (Similar to how "Dig In" adds avoidance to allies around the player)

    @mystarr
    OK, cool. Testudo uses the same combat mechanic as Dig In. That is the cause. Both will be fixed in the upcoming release.
