    Can Nyzul Weapons be leeched?

    If a 6 members group is currently inside Nyzul Isle, farming points/floors, would it be possible for an outside 7th member to be invited to loot any Nyzul weapon dropping?
    Isnt Nyzul outside & inside counted as the same zone?

    different instance of same zone: nope. not possible for salvage, assaults, einherjar to leech equipments. but it works for limbus. So answer is no for nyzul.

    invite him/her along into zone and leech: yes of course

    No, and same for hazhalm and salvage. after boss kill, some people just use fireflies (or in einherjar's case toss lamp), because there were drops for them. As soon as you exit, you no longer have access to the drop pool. Nyzul and Salvage also actually *ZONE* you into an instance. Einherjar is a little different though because you don't *ZONE* when you enter a chamber. You just sorta *JUMP* to the chamber.

    Interestingly enough though, if you are in Nyzul and do /sea you can see the party members of other instances. Same goes for Salvage and Einherjar (which is annoying because sometimes you wanna know how many people showed up to more important runs like Tier 3 and Odin and there's 5 more parties there not in your ally. The nice thing is though if you are in any of these instances and your group has an LS and they all got it equipped you can "/sea linkshell" and just see them.

    So why does this work for Limbus then? Is Apollyon areas and Temenos areas all considered to be part of the same zone? Its very convenient for low manning and lotting on other groups loot pools, but just seems wierd that they only did it for that event and no other events in the game.

    You're not instanced in Limbus. There is only one of each zone and once it's taken it's taken and you have to sit outside and wait. Also yes, they are all the same zone, search brings you up as only being either in Apollyon or Temenos, not in SE, NE, Central, Northern, etc.

    Salvage/Assaults/Nyzul there are multiple instances of the same zone and you're also technically in a different zone than what you started in. You enter from Alzadaal Undersea Ruins but search will bring you up in Arrapago, Bhaflau, etc.

    bc's behave like limbus for the same reason. different rooms for different bcs just like different apollyon paths have different wings that are reserved when you enter. all the same zone, there's just a physical barrier between you and them. salvage, nyzul, and assault are different in that the game actually builds you a micro zone (like SE should do with dynamis HINT HINT) of your very own that you inhabit and are completely isolated in.

    And the 'leader' should be given "zone management" rights to remove people from the zone. see a list of names that all currently have access, and or other usefull things.

    force distribute cells for when people go afk (yes, you could just kick them, but they may need the cells and it's a pain to hold them if you could force them to the right place). autosort items when zone clearance ends (looking at you lost skadi feet). that sort of thing but no. no. that would be too easy.
