Here's a novel idea:

Leash NTOV dragons close to their spawn so people can't cheese pull Velious's main bosses to the zone line?

The "choke point" only exists because the players have chosen (or forced themselves mutually) to gimp it all by pulling everything to the zone in. Once again, this is just a SYMPTOM of the underlying problem that plagues the raid scene: pixel lust and man-child neck-bearding.

Seriously though ... how much sever drama would be avoided and CSR intervention would become obsolete if you had to engage all TOV dragons close to spawn? Big guilds would have to decide if launching a full scale raid would be worth it for 1-2 minor named thus leaving it possibly open for others. Multiple raids would not be at risk for training each other (accidentally or otherwise) in fighting close to spawn.

This server has already implemented much less classic mechanisms. I'm pretty sure the Verant Devs intended you to fight ToV shit in the respective wing it spawns.

People have been asking for this for a long time, and I'm pretty sure the bosses were rooted in their spawn rooms on live. What we have right now is NOT classic.

Guilds will die before they crawl ToV weekly for single dragons.
I dunno - sounds more like a pro, than a con.
