Alright, ever since I was a wee DE, I have wondered something.
We all see people roughing up NPCs. And we know they can take quite a beating. But can they be killed?
If you had hundreds of people just going to town on them. Would they eventually die?
I have wondered for a while, and only asked because I was on youtube and saw some private server video (I know, :p privet server) where a guy killed a bunch of NPCs. It may just be some whacky server thing. But it made me wonder. And they all had death animations, so it seems reasonable to assume you could kill them.
This question has already been posted before. On the official servers it is not possible to kill most NPCs. Only Guards and Bloody Pixies can be killed by highlevel players.
Some time ago you were able to kill inner castle gatekeeper. It was used by enemy attackers, they sneak into castle, kill that NPC (respawn time is few hours), and defenders were traped in throne room then.
Was it changed or is it happening today too? Do not remember all patch notes within 3 chronicles :(

Clarification:
Anything that is capable of attacking you back, is capable of being killed. Thus the Treant guards, the pixies, regular guards, sentries, etc. can be killed, but shopkeepers, gatekeepers, masters, magisters, etc. can not.
As far as Non-mob NPC's go, basically, if it chases a red, it can be killed.

yup agreed
a word of warning though, the first time you go kill your first npc i suggest its not an archer. those guys 2 hit my lvl 70+ mechanic golem (luckily back in the day before agro was tranfered)
if you absolutely must kill a guard and arent sure of the outcome start with the treants at elven village since those are the only ones you can run away from
even the unkillable npcs have hp and you can see this by useing hp drains on them
after a few drains you should see that you are draining for zero hp and thats the point where it should have died
