Game Mechanics: Lets Talks About Velious Binding Rules

[-Catherin-]

Killing the ability to bind in ToV would definately change the scene in there...

[Man0warr]

Bind should be dead in all Velious dungeons (even today on Live, you can't bind in Velious dungeons).

ToV was meant to be a crawl. No binding and eventual rooting of dragons enforced this via game mechanics since the live GMs were pretty hands off with raids.

Bump, didn't go into patch.

[Phantasm]

Your bumps are being ignored.

This is one of those political issues that need to be talked about for 8 months before an ineffective raid summit is called together, ultimately resulting in no change

BDA, I can assure you that under current rules A/A will have no trouble pulling dragons to either East or West without TL boxes. This rule change will not enable a golden age of constant TOV crawls.

Doesn't matter. Couldn't bind in any Velious dungeon on live, shouldn't be able to on P99 either.

bump - we've had unclassic binding rules in ToV for way too long. reset existing binds and remove the luclin-era roamers in the safe hall.

bump - got some quality evidence in this thread. here are some choice posts:

thus far, nobody has been able to present conclusive evidence that binding should be allowed. there's plenty of anecdotal evidence suggesting that binding wasn't allowed, but nothing that outright states "you can't bind in ToV."

given that nobody can conclusively prove that binding should be allowed, we should err on the side of caution and change this mechanic to a more classic state until evidence supporting binding in ToV can be found.
