Question

What are the most dangerous raids that happen in towns?

I'm talking about amount of creatures and strength needed to kill them.

Dangerous for whom? Level 20-? 50-? 100-?

A long time ago, I remember being  a low level walking around Thais without my equipment because I was decorating my house and all the rats spawned on me hahaha It was the scariest day of my noob super early days xD

Nowadays, I think the Pirat raid is scary, not sure that one counts towards the concept of raid you are referring to, but it's something to watch out for! It's pretty close to town and dangerous if you are unprepared.

Also, never afk in a place that is not protection zone, you never know what can happen O.O

the one about pirat raid, is probably the "most dangerous close to a town" raid known atm so ines is right, if we don't take into account the anniversary raid, but it were nice to actually state how so "close to a city" must be, because the only actual raids that occur inside a city i think are: liberty bay pirates/quaras, yalahar vampires and trivial raids, while pirat raid, is close to port hope stairs on the way to depot, elves raid is literally in every single gate of venore, nomads raid in ankrahmun wall, lizard raid close to boat in ph, etc etc etc.

oh oh! and why not the "raid" (actually a bug) with guzzlemaw surrounding port hope, i think even lvl 400~ got a bit of a scary moment watching sudden guzzlemaws in the middle of port hope depot (?

Answer 1

There are actually quite a few raids in cities, and some of them can prove fatal for low-level players. Walking through the streets of the cities, we can come across such raids as:

- Rats (Thais; first announcement: 00:00:00 Rat plague in Thais!)

- Badgers (Ab'Dendriel, an unannounced raid),

- Pirates (Liberty Bay, the first announcement: 00:00:00: Unknown ships were spotted south of Liberty Bay),

- Pirates (Liberty Bay, the first announcement: 00:00:00: Pirates launch surprise attack on Liberty Bay! Use caution, they seem to be everywhere),

- Quara (Liberty Bay, the first announcement: 00:00:00: Something is moving in the deep sea around Liberty Bay),

- Feverish Citizens (Venore, unannounced raid),

- Vampires (Yalahar, first announcement: 00:00:00: Yalahar citizens, beware! Harbingers of the vampiric thirst for blood are appearing in the city. Fight them or take the chance to escape while you still can),

- Grynch Clan Goblins (various cities during the Christmas season, the first announcement: 00:00:00 Goblins of the infamous Grynch Clan are invading city to steal all presents, beware!).

Whether a particular raid is dangerous for us is an individual matter, but sorting these raids in terms of the density of the strongest monsters, the most dangerous in my opinion are: 

▶ both raids of Pirates (Liberty Bay), 

▶ raid of Quara (Liberty Bay), 

▶ raid of Vampires (Yalahar).

Answer 2

I believe that there are only 2 3 raids (dangerous) that happens EXACTLY IN THE CITY.

One of these is Pirate Boss Raid on Liberty Bay which has some crazy amount of pirates, sometimes including bosses, walking around the city streets.
The second one would be Vampire Raid on Yalahar. Vampires are also pretty strong enemies and they also spawn all over the city.

There's also 3rd one, the unfamous Feverish Citizen Raid in Venore. This one might not be the one of the most dangerous ones but surely may be deadly for quite a few low level characters.

I hope this helps.

Not sure if it counts but just throwing it out there k absolutely hate feverish citizens but with a stealth or Dwarven ring they are manageable at low levels

Ah yes! I totally forgot about these. I'm going to edit my answer. Thank you!
