Holy after making my post I just read yours and I have to STRONGLY disagree man. If they allow two boxing the server is over. At least the server economy is over.

Every halfway good platinum generating camp can now officially be Duo'd.

If you don't believe me check out the solo artists challenge where people have already duo'd such mobs as the Sebelite Protector - hits for 451 and can wipe out a small raid of 2-3 groups if things go bad.

Fungi king would be farmed 24/7 by someone boxing. So would crypt. So would HS South, East, West - hell probably even North.

Good luck finding somewhere to group or people motivated to group with when damn near every decent camp is taken by a person boxing.
Also have fun with your ruined economy when there is a massive influx of farmed items into the market to the point a heiro cloak is sitting at 5k and a fungi at 15k.

So hanging out with another person you know, whom also has super awesome level 60 and camps Crypt with you, is different than you camping it as a duo by yourself?

The boxing then isn't the problem, the root issue is that the camps are doable by only two people.

If you're making the argument that boxing makes the process easier, then that's equally as weak because one person trying to play two characters in a situation that's difficult, is NOT as easy as doing it with someone else.

As for the economy, what's wrong with lower prices? A Fungi at 15k? Awesome, and good for them. It means that eventually people will STOP camping it, because it's not worth their time, which means there won't be any people interfering in innocent XP groups' camps. And 15k isn't that easy to come by, unless you have gifts from friends. So even at 15k, a Fungi would still elude most players until level 30 or 40+ meaning they aren't having too easy of a time ( Fungi is not that super, it's still easy to die. If the mob was going to kick your ass before without a Fungi, it'll still kick your ass with one).

Having said that, again this is not because of boxing, it's because of greed and imbalance in the game.

Face it, the majority of people whom would box, do it only to res/port themselves and their friends - it's purely about convenience.
