How does this whole /pick thing work? I understand the concept of it, I just don't understand the execution of the command.
Guess I was wrong. Zoned into LGuk, mobs are definitelly higher than usual. /pick says that is the only instance. Kinda wondering what that means for people who are regular level appropriate and need stuff from there for quests and such. /pick is an instancing tool for overcrowded zones. If I understand right, when a zone has more people than a certain threshold, an additional instance of the zone is spawned. When you type /pick, a window opens showing available instances and how many people in each. You select an instance and click Go. Alsom each instance has an ID number. You can just type /pick <ID number> and you will switch over to that instance.
