When you Consider NPCs (/con) you will get a message. The message relays three things. The first is the NPCs attitude toward you. The second is how tough the NPC is compared to you.

When it comes to telling whether or not you're going to be able to stand up to that mob that you are staring down or not, using the /con system is a good way to get a general idea. These messages and their colors vary depending upon the level difference between you and the PC or NPC which you have /con'd. Most of these con colors/messages have static ranges, while a couple of them vary a little bit depending upon level. | When it comes to telling whether or not you're going to be able to stand up to that mob that you are staring down or not, using the /con system is a good way to get a general idea.
