About camp mobs rules

[Kiwix]

I guess you refer mainly to the chanters clearing PHs in Chardok and gating to repeat.

If you are to 100% follow the guidelines; the camp is left open the second the chanter gates.

However, this is a common play stile in Chardok and anyone wanting to force this down on a given chanter is just actively searching for a dispute.

Anyways, when chanters do this, they often clear more than just one PH, and if you want to camp either of the PHs, just ask cc and they should only pick one and you can chose from the rest. This is how chanters in between sort camps in Chardok drama-free.

That is incorrect: gating doesn't make you lose a camp, unless you gate out of the zone. Your camp (ie. a mob you killed, or killed the placeholder for) is your camp ... until one of two things happens:

• you give it up (eg. by leaving the zone, dying, or letting the mob respawn and not re-killing it within a "reasonable" amount of time)
• someone else says "I see you are doing multiple camps, but I'd like to do one and this server forces everyone to share: please pick one to keep"; at that point one of the camps you don't claim can be claimed by that person (and the rest become FTE)

So what qualifies as a reasonable amount of time? If I make my way to a camp and the PH is up, how long does it have to be up in order to claim it?

That's the million dollar question, and one that the staff deliberately refuses to answer (even though personally I think doing so would lower conflicts, not increase them). Enough time that you can be certain no one else owns it, so that if you're wrong and they petition you're not worried about getting into trouble.

Of course sometimes (eg. if there's no one else in zone, or no one else of the appropriate level) you don't have to worry about this.
