The Hidden Forest

I always wondered why this was in place. Is it to prevent lag/crashes or is it a balance thing? Is it possible to remove this mob limit, or to have it raised? 25 mobs is not alot and it happens quite often that you get ported out to safety (at least for me).

There are several reasons for this limit. The main ones are server stability and balance. To be fair, 25 mobs are quite a lot to run into by accident.

Huge pulls can cause server lag and more importantly disturb other players. They also grant an unbalanced exp rate. These are the main reasons. I understand it can be frustrating sometimes (we apologize for that) but again, running into 25 mobs is not that easy unless someone is training a whole zone away and in that case, the teleportation to a safe location might come handy anyway.

I remember when Lillu was testing the code for it and I kept ganking every damn mob in that part of the zone from him.
