My problem with pulling dragons to the entrance is:

On live, raids used the zone in as a setup area for ToV raids. Let's say a guild is planning on doing an armor farm in WToV or whatever. They can't really setup and buff while dragon AEs are going off at the entrance.

Plus, it kind of kills the point if you pull the dragons to the entrance.

Ya binding in ToV is not classic, i cant believe thats still in game.

Remove binding, add lazy agro, root the appropriate dragons and give them call of the zero.

The whole reason they were rooted in the first place was to prevent skipping content which verant took seriously. Its also one of the main reasons item recharging was nerfed (using rez staffs to skip content)

Im confused at the proposed resolutions to pulling dragons to the zone when you would like to zone in...do we need SoWers shouting in WW to not zone in?
seems pretty easy to have people do

I'm not so worried about that, just the fact that train pulling mobs to get a Dragon solo to entrance just trivializes the content. Wipe on an encounter is easy to overcome, mobs have shorter life spans, mystique of fighting your way to a Dragon lair is gone, etc. It just encourages fast 3am poopsocks.

Nerf please, ignore poopsock tear protests

That's what I'm on about....why the hell do people want to trivialize end game content? The content IS the game at that point, without it you might as well just be pressing a loot button.

I get that blocking is fun for some people, but sheesh.

If you are unhappy with the current situation, how about lobbying for something that is better for players in general. Right now you are saying "I can't currently compete, so I want this change to this other situation in which I will still be unable to compete, but will at least have the satisfaction of knowing that I have made the process more miserable for others."

Guess what? I can't compete either, but lobbying to have to clear drakes for hours to get to a dragon is t going to give me any more free time or increase my chances of being available for dragon kills :/

Forcing trash clears in ToV only promotes poopsockery.
