Unfortunately, the training stuff away from the zone line doesnt work,
matter of fact, it seems to have the opposite effect. Quite a few people on
tunare had the same idea and yeah, i got picked for train duty. I was quite
happy to do it though if it ment an easier breakin for everybody else. I
basically did everything you suggested except i had no invis (the idea was
to attract attention, not avoid it) and the end results where disastrous. I
tried doing several patterns, sometimes running in circls around the gate
hill and then running far off, othertimes just tagging the stuff inbetween
the corner and the impt tower... etc. All of em resulted in the same thing,
one full zone of uber pissed mobs looking for something to kill. It just
made a big backlash that fell back with a mighty THWACK on anybody that
tried to zone it or was in the corner. I lived plenty long enough to get
stuff far away, matter of fact i made it to cazic himself all but once
(tried punching him but everytime i got close he dt'd me heh). Several
other people tried this including big ogre warriors, troll sk's etc. End
result was all the same, just stirred everything up with out sufficiently
clearing the corner/gate hill. I have a tutorial for safely entering the
PoF at
http://server5.ezboard.com/ftunaredragonsandplanes.showMessage?topicID=91.to
pic, basically just a bunch of common sense. My bard and necro both have a
flawless zone in record to the pof, and the bard got his full suit of
imbrued before verant moved it to scorn banshees in the PoH.

I wish the train method worked, and i am not completly ruling it out, if
you can figure out a way of making it work please SHARE =)
