Shared breaks, level-appropriate travel and NPC approaches
The showcase group takes its breaks together and only shares quests from its zone; travel to Northrend and Outland is reserved for the required level; characters approach NPCs surrounded by monsters from the least crowded side.

Showcase group
- Shared breaks: when the leader catches its breath or waits, those near him drink and eat at the same time instead of milling around.
- Shared quests: only those from the leader's zone; a member arriving from elsewhere was passing on quests from another region.
- Short detours: a member out of drinks or with gear in the red may make a detour of two minutes at most to a nearby vendor.
- Production measurement since the previous batch: members are within 40 metres of the leader 78% of the time (63% before), and the group does turn in its quests.
Travel
A level 16 gnome had been taken to Northrend by the route planner, then kept trying to use a teleport crystal reserved for high levels. No passage to Northrend before level 68 nor to Outland before 58; a passage with no effect is skipped for an hour after two failures.
Other fixes
- NPC approaches: monsters near a quest giver or vendor now count in route avoidance; the character arrives from the least crowded side.
- Dungeons after a restart: a dungeon group rebuilt with no rule to follow leaves the instance instead of standing frozen.
Two paired validations (16 and 22 clones): stable indicators, no crash.
