Its just something that should be discussed. Using the tracker to face track and pull as well takes the race part out of it all(which is why new raid rules were enforced to start with).

Since FTE messages makes guilds back up some with raid bans easily handed out no one wants to violate the rules with FTE but manipulating a way to get FTE messages should be a clear violation. As the 2 people tagging the mob is NOT a force to kill the mob but a way to stall for 30 to 40 seconds until help shows up. This should be illegal and treated as such the 3 FFA Innys Ive been on have worked just like this.

I could be misunderstanding the whole reason why only 2 trackers are to be in zone when mob spawns but I feel using the trackers to earn FTE massages is manipulating the rules to gain an advantage.

IB pulled tal with 7 in zone. IB duo'd dracoliche with their trackers. IB javspammed PD just like we did for like 5 hours. Not sure there's really a way around this if FTE is still going to be a thing ~

Guilds didn't always used to use face trackers, you know. TMO, for instance, only used a face tracker for one dragon and that was because Fay was a million miles from Ogre Island. If TMO ever face tracked in VP (TMO did sometimes), those face trackers were not used to immediately FTE. BP's were sent; people logged on; pullers ran up; etc.

It was, until PD got super competitive here the last few months. Once javspam began, everything else started falling into place.

Yeah it's progressively gotten worse. I remember when TMO didn't even log at trak when it was in window. They raced from KC.

This is actually a thought-->making everyone race from KC haha.

Speaking of, the fact that we can't log in at ledge is ridiculous ><

I definitely agree.

Vying guilds should be allowed to xp in zone as well.
