by that rationale, hivemind, you're punishing a dominant guild for just doing what they do.
i mean variance is fine, but if your reason for implementing it is because Nihilum is too dominant and no one can compete with them, why would you then change server mechanics because of it? that's not the route you want to take with this thread.
i don't disagree that there's something to be said for variance or its capacity to help smaller guilds to some degree, if only marginally, but from the other side of things, it would just seem like punishment to the dominant guild that has already made the effort to control most of everything.
of course the top guild is going be against it. it only hinders their efforts further while (potentially) benefiting everyone else. how is that even an argument against them? "you guys are too strong, so implement a new server mechanic."
i can tell you that people in the dominant guild... their argument will be that there are other ways to compete here, not just with variance. simulated repop was also a stride taken by the staff to improve competition, and now it isn't good enough? According to you, it wasn't a good idea at all? When will enough be enough?
^that's pretty much what they'll say to you.
