The blue X's represent a geo-fenced area that the plugin will avoid. You may notice that a mob or 2 may get targeted inside; the plugin will drop the target if the mob is found in those areas.

FAQ:
  • Yes there are lots of mobs in the zone.
  • No we are not killing them all.
    • testing yielded about 210 kills per hour at 115 with CoV gear
