Choke point

A choke point is narrow part of a PvP map which will force your team to cluster together when passing through. Passing through a choke point against teams who have AoE spells is often considered folly because your entire team will be caught in the AoE damage. Many teams choose to wait on their side of the choke point rather than pass through it and get caught in their enemy's fire. Choke points are also common spots to place traps or stop enemy's advance (or retreat) by body blocking.

Choke points also exist in certain PvE areas such as the Underworld. Sometimes these points are exploited in farming, or simply taking advantage of enemy AI.
