it is 2 separate spawns. if 2 people want to camp one spawn each, that is what it is.

2 Treants in SK = one camp
4 Spectres around the spire in Oasis = one camp

Everyone knows this, just azzhats that cant wait their turn rocking the boat.

It is more valuable to let it be a single camp, imho. Yes, it is within server rules to claim one of the spawns, but it is kind of a waste to split up the spawns. It effectively turns a great camp into a questionable one.

It's best to notify us (forum questers) of who is taking both camps, and we'll go ahead and hold trial.

What NPC said. I've spent many levels there on several characters, and it's always been considered one camp. Never even heard of anyone trying to break it up.

Both treants are definitely 1 camp. It's always been that way

Exactly.

While one can technically claim the overarching outdoor rule of one spawn point per player (as a GM just confirmed HELLO), any camp gets worse and worse the more it's split up. Is it worth camping a single treant spawn? I don't know, I never kill trees. Is it worth camping a single spectre in Oasis? It certainly seems to be worth it in the Feerrott. We'd all rather spend 1 hour camping 4 spectres than 2 hours camping 2 spectres. This, combined with respect for other players' time, is why most players will not invoke the outdoor 1-per-player rule. Most people will instead wait in line and let someone else camp both trees or all 4 specs or whatever, then take their turn and hope to be allowed to do the same by the courtesy of other players.

This is a cool environment for us to create, where it's about courtesy and respect. However, we must recognize not all players will abide by these customs since the actual rule is one spawn point per player outdoors. So, don't get upset. Just try to be courteous.

Specs in Feer are 6:40 spawns the ones in Oasis are on the 16:30 zone timer so no one in their right mind wants to camp one at a time. If the oasis dudes spawned every six minutes I promise you people would force claims on a single.

People cite specs on this topic all the time making the comparison without qualifying. Its a good example of how and why player agreed camps can start to diverge from "one spawn one player" outdoor rules, but they are apples and oranges other than both being the same mob.

Trees are similar, even though you CAN no one really wants to camp just one of the two so people defer in hopes to have the whole camp like you said.
