This thread is honestly confusing because it basically hints that everything is FTE which conflicts with: http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2653

specifically:


Now I do not know if that post was made with any authority but what it says always made sense.

This thread contradicts everything I have understood, if 30 seconds is enough time to justify losing the spawn then this server basically caters to afk lvl 60s vs active groups camping things. If you are are level ~30 mage and camping hadden, he spawns, you are 40m I would think the logical scenario would be you med to full and then take him down.

Is this just for outdoor mobs?

When I camp NG in seb on enchanter I basically kill the 3 bugs, /q to drop pet, log back in, afk at safe spot until I see bugs begin to repop. Then I wait for the krup roamer to path back, I mez it, tash it, charm it.. then I go calm the bugs and then slow pull when the pet is un-mezzed. That process can take a few mins and it sounds like someone else could basically just walk up and kill the bugs since I took longer than 2 seconds to engage them all.

Now should someone be able to afk indefinitely and kill the thing whenever they are done watching their movie? No.. but at the same time it is hard to say a definite time frame. In the example of a level 30 camping hadden it could take 1-2 mins to get enough mana. In the case of me camping NG the krup can take more than a couple of minutes to path, another min for mez to end etc.

First off you won't be 40 mana camping Hadden. This is the key part of when I say people try and twist everything around.

Where did I say being afk and level 60 gives you the right to the camp. If you read what I have posted, you must be active and ready to engage your single npc you don't have clear to get. How does being active ready to kill, equal being level 60 and afk?

Once again, you answered your own question. You are actively engaged at your camp. Where is the comparison?
