Anything that I can change in its setup to reduce the chances of that happening?
Seems like it sometimes just ends up following a mob into the sunset and never comes back...
Used to lead to my death when I don't pay attention enough or go afk a bit but since I converted myself to the egg shell/shinobi combo it's just the homunculus that dies now.
It's even set to only go 7 cells around me but it's clearly not helping as I thought it would.
