My Iksar is in his early teens and I feel bottlenecked into Kurn's tower but whenever I log in there's a druid powerleveling some dude and I can rarely get any spawns. Is it legal for plat starved minmax geeks to fly over all the way from Faydwer, clog up low level Kunark dungeons and push the races that spawned right next to them into low xp low zem outdoors just because they like the place better?

Nope. It's called zone disruption. If they are taking so many mobs that you can't get any you can politely ask them to leave enough mobs up for you. If they decline you can petition it.

This. Go read the play nice policy like the game asks you every time you log in. People here shouldn't spoon feed you the answer because the answer to not only this question but to other questions you may have in the future are there.

post nice policy permits me to tell OP that you can ask them to leave and if they do not you can /petition them for zone disruption.

What Toxigen said. Pretty much per ruling They can setup shop all day long, everyday. But its a dungeon. They can claim one room, just like you can. The room you lay claim to they can't touch. But they are 1000% allowed to go to other rooms and pull as much as they want and murder. As long as they don't touch ur claimed room. If they continue to try and take mobs from ur one room ur camped in. Then /petition. Yes its annoying, but its part of the game. Also don't assume their getting payed to do it. I PL for free to friends/guildies petty much 30% of my total game play.

Yeah, you gotta Locc up on people and claim a camp. It can feel counter productive to a nice, peaceful dungeon grind, but that is the meta on green. You have the right to say “Pick a camp, and I’ll take one of these other ones.”

10. You may not disrupt the normal playability of a zone or area.
Zone/Area Disruption is defined as any activity designed to harm or inconvenience a number of groups rather than a specific player or group of players. This includes, but is not limited to::
- Monopolizing most or all of the kills in an area.
- Deliberately blocking a doorway or narrow area so other players cannot get past.
- Refusing to cooperate with the other parties at a contested spawn site after having been instructed to do so by a P99CSR.
- Making excessive and inappropriate use of public channels of communications (/shout, /ooc, etc.).
- Intentionally causing excessive zone latency (creating excessive corpses, abusing spell effects, etc.).
- Causing intentional experience loss to other players (deliberately impeding fleeing players by blocking their escape route, intentionally training NPCs on other players, etc.).

Always try to work it out with the other party before petitioning. Try to be polite even if they are at fault. keep logs on, screenshots and record video if they're really rule breaking hard.
edit: And never post about it publicly if you do petition.

Most people will move when you ask them.
There is a public facing culture ideal where we're not supposed to, for example, wait for someone to ask us NOT to park in the handycapped parking spaces because it's not fair to make them ask to use what they are fairly given the right to use.
But I dont think that extends to bathroom stalls IMO
and it certainly doesn't extend to online gaming, so if you want somethin in this game, you are OBLIGATED to speak up and ask for it.
IMO!
