That would work for most cases, but if I was writing something that I wanted to be positive people could not exploit in any way, it would probably take a considerable amount more coding to handle.

My main concern about that is 6 people could enter the proximity and then have 1 person engage and die, and then they would be able to bring 6 more players in. When making special encounters like that, you have to try to think of all possible angles people could use to exploit it. When you get a lot of people trying the same event over time, it is a sure thing that they will eventually find the loopholes if there are any. Trust me, I have had my fair share of them on Storm Haven lol.
