Keep this up for a few cycles and the mobs will spawn on your timer instead of the AOErs. We did it with a 58 monk / 58 shaman on a Saturday morning and it took 1 hour
Thank you, this is some helpful information and this is probably what I will do [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

No, AE is #1, sorry man. I'd have come here several times already if it wasn't for the specter of AE groups hanging over our heads. I remember this place on Live and there are some very good xp spots. But it's not worth the hassle to try and find a CSR so that you can keep them from the AE groups.
There are a lot of mobs available to pull for a group even with an AE group going. Yet no one ever is in the zone. I can manage to pull roughly ~130 for an AE group. Can get up to ~140 if I really go crazy. There are still a ton of mobs up even after I do a 140 pull. When you say you would take a group in I just don't believe you. People would do it if they actually wanted to.

Sirken has advised on his stream several times that he would encourage regular groups to claim spots in Chardok.

Sorry but Chardok AE is zone disruption.

Also, for the economic benefit of buying highly supplied goods vs opportunity cost of camping argument: It's not always financial. There are people who actually want to complete quests themselves. Pretty novel, huh?

Puller can just not pull the betrayer tunnel then. Not a huge deal, a good puller will know to get his 20 mobs from another spot and add that to the pull.

Then you can sod off. I'm telling you that's why I don't bring my static there. I don't really care if you don't personally believe me; it happens to be true. I suppose revealing yourself as one of the Chardok AoErs shows why you have a stake in not believing me, though.

Where are the groups on Sundays then? Chardok AE basically doesn't run most of the day sunday because too many mobs are in window. I have yet to see a single xp group in there.

Casuals like us don't usually play Sundays. My static group meets every Monday. If you're offering to let us have the zone on a Monday I gladly accept.

When the windows for mobs eventually get pushed to Mondays I expect to see you in there xping.

And I expect to see you telling us that we can now use the zone on Mondays. I know you think that people are spamming /who all chardok frantically, but everyone else has mostly given up using the zone because we can't trust that an AoE group will or won't show up.

When the mob windows get pushed to Monday, make an announcement in forums that you're no longer using Chardok for AoE groups on Mondays, and stick to it. You'll see people in there.

Ideally you'd give the server some extra days now, but I'm not anticipating that. (Even more ideally the GMs would do something concrete about this, but I'm not anticipating that either.)
