I think the point is people shouldn't HAVE to go somewhere else. If the kiter is playing nice and not taking all the mobs then thats cool. But draining most of the mobs in a zone where 30 or 40 people are fighting just so one person can level far faster then was ever intended is a dick move.


Not sure how anyone can argue that. also if you want to speed through the levels playing solo its puzzling why you're even on p99 to begin with. Go play wow then.

Its opportunity cost. Anything over like 15 mobs is going to kill you if you mess up just once, so its in your best interest to pull as much as possible. Furthermore, there are never 30-40 in the zones we are discussing, so that is irrelevant. Intention is also irrelevant. There are plenty of things that have happened in EQ and other MMO's that weren't intended on the part of the developers, but were discovered by players since they far outweigh developers. It doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to happen, since they are within the rules and game mechanics.

The point is, if someone is camping something, you move on. It shouldn't be any different if a bard is aoe'ing. You either grab some mobs from the train, or you go somewhere else. Its no different if you went to seb to camp crypt and it was camped. You'd go somewhere else. You wouldn't cry like a little girl about it on the forums.
