I've never seen an enemy run into a wall without any status effects on it...

[MudHunter]

Almost certainly the monster was trying to follow someone through a 'command' direction, like the ne is a go hole or go path...


Mobs cannot follow through these right now.

No, not where I found him. It was about 3 rooms from the Giant Spider's room in Darkwood. Though I'd be skeered of a cleric coming at me weilding a throwing hammer..
