At this point the “inside DPS” wizard will finish the mobs off and get XP for every single mob. The entire time chanters are stun locking the zerg of mobs and the cleric uses divine aura and heal agro to get the mobs grouped up properly.

The problem is that these guys sell “proxy” spots (where you just sit in group and leech XP…you pay a premium platinum price for this)…So you can imagine that continuously pulling the entire zone every 20 minutes and selling group spots for 2k per pull equals a lot of levels and money changing hands. It’s a RMT cesspool and it has made it where people can level from 50-60 in one weekend (NOT CLASSIC). heaven forbid if a Monk needs to go camp the Pipe for his epic - you must buy for 3k from some Wizard sh!tlord who has the zone on lock down or sit and patiently wait for one to drop and then buy it.

Classic Charok AoE is killing like 10-20 mobs at once, not 200

Ok, thanks for the clarification. I understand now. When we did it we might have up to 50 mobs at any one time but certainly not the entire zone and nobody ported out or anything. It was just a monk rounding up huge groups and bringing them to group to kill. By the time we killed that group the monk would have another group so it was constant killing.

Has there been any public comments from P99 indicating if they approve of this behavior or if they might take any action at some point? How long has that been going on? I must say that sounds a bit disappointing to hear if it's allowed to just go unchecked.
