Tyberius the Minstrel of Emarr at your service.
No. The PoN camp was far enough away from the zone in that I don't see how that would have been an issue. No one really cared about those werewolves except for bards. You could swarm them w/ charm right in their little corner and have 0 issues with adds. I spent a lot of time in PoN and rarely saw anyone even bother exping outside of a few spots that were far from the werewolves. AoE songs/AA ate shit largely because of HoH. It wasn't ever about zone disruption but about how easy it was to solo farm AAs.

It was about zone disruption.

Since SoE hosted same zones on same server, having multiple bards AE kite in the same zone would overburden that server, causing serverwide lag in the zone.

Same issue with earthshaker / war rampage disc. I would make Nadox a slideshow on every server, pulling 120 mobs and proccing 30+ AEs on all of them at once.
