Please fix this Nilbog.

Would be nice but it appears the time to fix this has since passed.

What should've been done is what they did with Kael. It was set to the final-Velious state binding rules initially. Even if the case of early allowed bind spots wins out, it seems well accepted that the ability to bind was removed at some point on live. For Re-99 I'd definitely say don't allow binding in Velious dungeons day 1.

If they could put all bind spots in ToV into PoMischief and remove binding in ToV that would definitely make things way more interesting though. The worst thing that could be done though is removing the ability to bind there without removing existing bind spots. If that's done and raid rules don't change only those with bound pullers could compete. As people quit guilds would fall to 1-2 bound pullers capable of bringing mobs in. It would be hilarious.

This aside, I do have evidence of Atleast Tower of Frozen Shadows not allowing binding in the very beginning of Velious. Those bind spots and bind ability definitely should get pulled.

Obviously you remove or move the currently bound people. Same for all dungeons in Velious.

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

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.
