I'd be happy if greydwarf aggro would be put on par with the other mobs. No other monster leaks into my base looking for me. I know in more advances biomes you can find things like a Deathsquitto chasing a deer into your meadows camp but that's different.

Indeed, no complaint in this regard. Although a patrol of 6 greydwarves with brute and shaman very close to the spawn (because there's a tiny BF patch next to the meadows I spawned in) is serious business because they never give up the chase and you can't kill them even with a veteran character if you're naked and gearless. They're the only ones that do that so you can't survive that encounter even if you run (you can run away from trolls, serpents and even skellies I believe). Unless you find a wasp nest nearby and you bait them into it.

I have no problems with mobs in the black forest, but with mobs coming down from it into my base in the meadows close to spawn (which is in a clear and has a few trees still in the meadows biome on the side). Just in case it gives that feeling, I'm not asking to make the game easier or reduce enemies, etc. Just commenting on this unique behaviour of a certain mob which leans more on the annoying side rather than challenging or fun. Because I wipe them out easy, but they interrupt me in the base while crafting or building because if I don't dispatch them they kill my bees. NOT THE BEES! Or my crops.

I found a temporary solution to make them less annoying and is to mod the audio. Now they make the noises of a spanish comedian so at least the give me a giggle. Meanwhile, I found a good island to build a good lighthouse in.
