Getting hit by others' enemy AoE while DoL gathering

[Fynlar]

Working as intended.

Whether it was intended or not, it needs to change. It literally serves NO good, not even as any form of game "balance"

It only gets players more riled up at each other, and it only gives the GM staff more griefing calls to handle.

Some players are just jerks, but thats life

Not everyone doing this is even a jerk. A lot of the times I've had my gathering interrupted, it was clearly accidental, from some guy just running by and aggroing things. It still shouldn't be happening.

In terms of balance, if you as a DoL get immunity from AoE's I demand:

-Immunity from AoEs as DoW/DoM unless targeted to me. Hey, it's only fair and it brings balance.

So she is right - Working as intended, part of the dangers of deciding to chop trees or pick at rocks in an area with hostile monsters or monsters who may use an AREA OF EFFECT ABILITY. It doesn't need to change.

To be fair, if it's currently causing interruptions to gathering (as in, physically blocking people from crafting because they're taking damage), that's the only real part that needs to be fixed. Then it would be a matter of "how much damage am I willing to soak to get this item" instead of "well, damn, guess I don't get that unspoiled node."
