Yea, it's essentially an FTE system.
I have to say, it's gonna be very weird actually seeing trackers in zones now, or at least some zones. Recently, along with IB, we've been the only 2 guilds to use them in any way shape or form. Should be fun

There's still an incentive to afk camp, and I foresee quite a shitstorm, Nilbog. You can pretty much guarantee that any raid guild camping on top of a certain mob to maintain aggro radius will probably wipe as soon as it pops (other than perhaps inny, he shouldn't be too much of a problem). I think it will essentially become a "race for 2nd" with guilds waiting just outside of aggro range to tag it. But this doesn't solve the poopsocking for dragons, and perhaps even inny. Having the 15 in zone removes the requirement to track/mobilize and can still be easily managed in perma/solb and pohate (clearing a few mobs every 8 hours isn't all that hard). If it does become a race for 2nd I think you'll be seeing the /petitions roll in for trains and disagreements on who tagged first and who had rights. You guys will keep yourselves pretty busy in that respect.
I think if there was a limited amount of time that guilds were allowed to camp in the zone with the zone clear (minus certain mobs like the 30min corners and some roamers in hate) it would leave planes clear for guilds to come up and have their shot at trash while still allowing big guilds who track and are willing to mobilize a shot at the trash and potential targets. This rule certainly eliminates poopsocking as it is now, but it changes poopsocking to "poopsocking with first to engage" or "poopsocking with who has the most DPS." It certainly is better in the sense that anyone can sit there and if it pops anyone who tags may have a shot, but I highly doubt that any guild will want to sit in aggro range of major targets to maintain the first shot. If an addendum were added to discourage the zone-camping for a "race to 2nd" then you guys will save yourselves quite a headache and would eliminate poopsocking completely.
