The drops weren't shit until the AErs exploited the fuck out of it. The Stave of Shielding used to go for 50k!

Also, there are two things that make it an exploit IMO: the lack of lazy aggro (mobs should give up if they are too far away) and the fact that no ones PC or internet connection could handle blowing up 100+ sarnaks. If PBAE spells were capped at 30-40 targets I would have no problem with Chardok or Bards or whatever else. I mean P1999 is already fucked on this front but I really hope they will cap AE spells this way when they launch the 'real' server.

if you think mobs not having a leash and should warp back to their spawn points when the puller is out of range to shake agro, then NToV would be a MUCH better place to raid at for every other guild then the big guilds that use an even more 'exploitative' pull method to pull named dragons to the zone in in ToV.

i wish they did put leashes on mobs like they later added to EQ on live and games like WoW, peeps would actually have to fight mobs in NToV etc almost at their spawn spots instead of pulling shit to the ntov zone in training everyone else that happens to zone in etc.

DA blocking stuns is rather large as well. 120 mobs all having a chance to stun makes that second DA a lot more difficult to get off. I think Ele already pointed this out.

You and Ele do realize that stuns are called to begin 6 seconds before DA ends right? Melee stun is what? 2 seconds, maybe 3-4?

Enchanter stuns will be 8 seconds on that intital pack and you have plenty of time to click off DA and not get stunned.

I did a pull there once on cleric where I used neither DA, just asked enchanters to stun on the first mob and I just healed through. It was glorious.

Take a look at the spawn times for some of the drops necessary. It's going to be a shit show.

If you need further proof that Chardok is bad for the server just look at who is endorsing it. IRYD still melting down due to TRUMP getting ready to take his welfare checks and deport his illegal immigrant boyfriend
