Now I'm still new to this game but I've noticed that mobs stay only around the warps (from what I've seen). Will they ever be patrolling around that would make this game alot more exciting due to random attacks if someone is just idle gaming.
yes, the farther you progress, the more patrol range the gate pirates have. also pirates spawn at random locations over time. so what you are looking for is already int he game.
