This is interesting, although besides what Anarch Cassius said, there isnt much else that can be done.
I mean how smart should NPCAI be ? For a mage its more intersting because the NPC can see what the player is casting, so he can be programmed to maybe cast a faster spell, and fizzle the player, or para the player and run away, but for a normal NPC who is melee based, what can you do ?

Im an NPC On See new player.
Check my Skill base.
Am I a thief or a mage or a warrior?
Is the PC worth attacking, or stealing from?
If there is a chance I can win, attack him.
If there is a chance I can loose, dont attack untill attacked.
Im I dying should I heal or runaway ?

What exactly do NPCS have in runuo that we cant make for them here?
I would imagine we can achieve exactly the same.
