I use it when I'm familiar with the area. And yes, in LGuk, I am of the
opinion that on the rare chance you do hit something outside the immediate
area, that's just one more mob for your group (asuming someone doesn't grab
it as it's pathing to you.)
The Assassin's room I might avoid, since there are other multi-levels there.
But that area (garg area to savant room to cavalier room to the area just
below the garg area) would be the only place I would think twice about using
an ae song in an overpopulated lguk.
