Fact: no where in all the rules does it say anything about hail locking. You are assuming hail locking is stalling, however since the mob is not engaged when hail locked, anyone can grab that FTE. If the FTE is still open for anyone, that's not stalling.

Q10: What about a raid mob being indefinitely kited, stalled, or occupied?
A: It is against server policy to indefinitely kite, stall, or otherwise keep occupied a raid mob without intention of killing it. You either bring it to your raid, die, or zone out. Obvious stalling of a raid mob, especially in situations to prevent engagement by another guild/party, is against the rules. Ignorance is not an excuse to break this rule. If you are pulling raid targets, we expect you to know what you’re doing.

Say what again?

This might have flown in TMO days but the staff has repeatedly stated 'letter of the law vs intent of the law' and in this case you would be convicted in P99 court of raid stalling since you were doing it for no other reason but to grief another guild.

It's not stalling. That other guild can so, so, so, so easily get FTE if some dork is hail locking. That's like competitive raiding 101. If you want an absolute guarantee that your guild goes home with nothing, hail lock the boss so the other guild can FTE it

In the words of the great poet Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson;

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK.


Sirken said it's against the rules years ago. It has always been against the rules. Being able to perpetually lock a mob in your raid camp until you're ready to engage it is shady. Ex: locking Dain at the bottom of the well while other guilds are up top, etc. No feasible way to pull it.

Ignorance of this rule is not excuse of this rule. Hail locking a mob in your camp disqualifies you from that mob, period.
