Why the sudden removal of the PK zone south of Graal city?

just guessing but
bc of constant pk mobs getting formed in that area. they had remove it so people can go through without getting disturbed.

shes's been reset before

That's their strategy to create more "competition" at towers. Remove pk areas from the overworld and move it to the towers. AC pond pk area is the next one to be converted into a noob friendly safe zone.

can almost guarantee this isn't why they did it because I know some of the higher-ranking staff hate the fact that the entire map can't be open for PK
I'm sure it's just because the new leaderboard hype created a huge mob that was disturbing new players so it's been temporarily disabled

I do hope you're right. Now matter what people think, Mob PK was fun!

Its not a guide on how to skillfully pk. Its a guide on how to most effectively pk with the highest pks/hour results
