Acknor is the worst defended village I've ever seen, 95% of the time. You either don't put up a statue, or put one up where I can sprint past it. When you do have a statue, most of the time you don't have guards on it, so I can just cure it and go rescue farmers. Also, you really need to remember that there's two ways into the village, not just the one off the highway. Even then, a Moondancer can just fly in and get them anyway.

I'd suggest a statue and 10 guards at the bend in the road off the highway, and a similar setup on the backway in. Also, put at least an elemental at all the furrikin quest mobs, so I can't so easily meld and influence them with paranoia.

I've known it's the worste defended village for a long time. And the few times I've tried to point out how to make the place somewhat defended, I was either ignored, or I picked times when -everyone- was lagged, or AFK.
