Carabosse

[Ihnako]

You self answered your question... one after each other

Dynamis mobs have true AOE because they were originally designed as reservation zones, where upto 36 players can enter and fight the same mobs.

You can enter Dynamis with 3 full alliances and in case I remember right. It's limited to 64 player except dreamlands.

However in Abyssea, this is open game to anyone that decides to farm Carabosse.

Apart from Dynamis, there are pretty much no mobs / nm's that have the ability to interfere with one another when claimed by 2x *seperate* alliances.

Sure mobs link, pixies cure each other, buff each other etc etc, however why can a pixie NM claimed by an alliance other then your own, heal another NM that is claimed by your alliance?

That's where you answered your own question - Carabosse is a Pixie and an NM so take it as garanted that an NM can do more than regular mobs. Nevertheless Carabosse did Benediction since Abyssea was introduced and healed every mob while it was claimed. So there is nothing new nor odd with it's behaviour. It's all about the playerbase to deal with it.
By the way - Carabosse is the easiest NM to start an empyrean so don't cry if you have to use some common sense.

There are a few mobs in abyssea that are true-aoe which is fine (like Pantokrater, the odd Ironclad etc) however Carabosse does not under normal circumstances possess this trait - apart from 2hr.

In the end, it's an annoying part of farming Carabosse next to other players, especially ones that attempt to MPK and steal pop sets you have farmed.

Please call a GM in case someone tries to steal your pop.

I could understand if Benediction restored an unclaimed Carabosse, however it should not restore one claimed by another alliance.

See second quote - It's an NM and it's fine the way it is right now.
