Plus, if you full wipe, why waste an NM? Let someone else have it. It's not like you're going to be able to get it back anyway.
A valid point. Thanks for adding that.

As far as the wipe thing, I'm not saying that it should despawn after everyone dies. If you are all dead and that mob is unclaimed, it is beyond unreasonable to think that anyone will stand by for long enough for your group to get it together to take it down. For most mobs, it's likely that the other group will be done with it by the time you are ready to pop another anyway.
