![]() What is the etiquette behind high level people farming say the wall at crushbone or the elite guards in Blackburrow, especially when the zone is at capacity and everything is camped?
I asked politely a couple of people (30+ level folks in CB) but they just said "I'll tell you when I leave." and it was hours later, I logged back in, people still there. My group out leveled the entrance/rando's, and there were five of us Back in classic I never really ran into this problem, but once you're twice to three times the level of a spot there really are better places to farm money-making things. What's the etiquette, should I just deal with it or do I get to raise my fist in angry righteousness? Screenshot of kinda the situation: THE NAMES HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT THE INNOCENTTTTTT. And possibly less innocent, I'm not mean. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

![]() Yeah, this is not classic. In Live, high levels will be ethical to give up camp immediately since they cannot level from all those greens anyway.

![]() Yeah this guy's decently polite, but his motives and what he was doing was not. Also conditions for giving up the camp? Silly.
Why is this even a comment | ||

![]() His motives were simple - to farm belts for an alt or a friend. That's a perfectly reasonable thing to do, even when it inconveniences you. He has no obligation to yield his camp to you or anyone else just because you gain xp there and he does not.

![]() Pro tip, your own name always appears last when you type /who with no arguments...

![]() Annnd I can't edit the primary post I guess.
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Thanks Casteel. Though its not a big deal I guess. Just worried some crazy people may grief the hell out of me. So in that vein, it's just first come first serve, there is no other thing to take into consideration, yes? That's the general vibe I'm getting. Like Kaera said, in Live I was very accomodating, if a lowbie or quest-doer needed the camp I'd either split it with them, strike a deal like I'd pay a set amount or if it was a specific mob like Jester for IBC, I'd only camp that one specific one. Belts are of course a drop on all those mobs, so that type of deal can't be made. So in that case I'd just leave, or find an area uncamped and take that over instead. Here's another alternate thing then, if you claim a camp, lets go with Slavers, and you are doing the slaver quest in addition to killing the mobs there, are those slave NPC's in effect yours? Or can some random person come and kill your quest NPCs, and that's not held under camp rules? Was having a lot of issues in crushbone with folks as you can see. Ain't no manners in you whippersnappers these days. | ||

Have to agree with Sam: everyone seemed perfectly polite and reasonable from the chat in the screen-shot. The issue arises when normative claims are thrown around to describe what is otherwise a humdrum situation. No Bard or BDA involvement!

![]() I usually give away the camps if ppl can muster a full group. But thats just me and how I choose to do it.
There is no rule about who has priority to a camp. Lets say they were all lvl 5 mobs but one of them dropped an item worth 20k once in a blue moon - that camp shouldnt be available for ppl lvl 10+? I actually think they added a zone that kinda worked like that - so after a certain level mobs wouldnt drop items for you anymore... | ||
