Farming by leaving zone?

How long do you give the Enchanter to crawl back down from BW?

It takes 1-3 minutes to run from entrance to any camp in the zone. In this case the PH is dead with a 20-min respawn timer, though. The etiquette / code of conduct / agreement is to wait for a PH to be up for about 2 minutes before taking a camp.

If I log in and see a PH up, I'll do an ooc CC and wait 2 min while standing right in front of the spawn. I'll kill it (claiming the camp) at that point.
Similarly, when finished with a camp, people generally leave the PH up. This signals to everyone else that the camp is now open. It's also somewhat common to see in ooc "camp X open" if someone leaves after holding it for a long time.

This approach allows for camping out buffs, provides buffer time for client crashes, etc. As long as you are there on time for the PHs, people will respect your camp.

Yeah I just meant more like ok if the Ench is sitting out there flaking around for 10 minutes or more are you still supposed to give them the camp if they decide to come back eventually (before the next PH spawns)?

Seems to me like it would be fair to take the camp at that point unless the other person is actively making that run down from BW/entrance.

I agree that if the player hasn't come back to the camp in 10 minutes, the assumption should be that they left the camp.

Anybody who is actively camping something in Chardok will immediately return to their camp from my experience. It certainly doesn't take 10 minutes to run to any camp in Chardok, so it's going to be a tougher sell to try and re-claim a camp after that period of time.

There is no official rule. It's more of an unofficial player agreement that has been ongoing for years.

Most people who farm in Chardok have learned that people gate, /q, or train out named mobs. This is a good strategy. They will adopt the strategy themselves and give other people courtesy when they use the same strategy.
