I would also like to point out, that if the enchanter died, and only the mage was there when the VD group came up, it was the VD group that killed the mobs on the way to efreeti. Therefore making the return of said enchanter faster, with no mobs being up. So the illusion of "I got back fast" means nothing to me here.

I remember running into a cleric/enc combo duoing efreeti, only they couldn't do it within 30 minutes to an hour. We moved up with maybe 10-12 people from fire giants, which could be classified as overkill for the camp, but the goal was to go up, kill efreeti, and get back to fire giants before respawns of the mobs in between. So we took overkill, ran up, and allowed them the chance to make an attempt. I didn't really feel I had to, given that the mob had been up for over an half hour, but ok, go for it. They tried, failed, and died. I pulled efreeti, we dragged their corpses and ressed them. Instead of thanks for saving them potentially a good chunk of time cr'ing, I am cursed out for stealing a camp. Needless to say, we didn't stay, we went back to fire giants as intended. All we did was give them a broken camp, and a quick cr. Greed and paranoia is what I call it in this game. People get selfish and paranoid about MY CAMP, and this is the result.

The first part is a really good point actually. I want to know if there's a response to that because I can't imagine the Enchanter getting back on his own without that kind of help (I mean, sure you can just lull whatever you see, but it usually takes me several attempts because something will roam and aggro you, so it surely can't be done quickly, as you suggested). Honestly in such a clusterfuck of a situation I totally understand why the GM made them roll on it. Unless they have really compelling evidence in either direction, they can't just hand someone the camp.
