Yes, no mistake I do not support variance as it only caters to the most dedicated of players who will sit in the game through entire 12 hour windows and not move and I miss the competition of raids and the mass pvp.
Sim repops are ok but in reality it leaves 1 guild scrambling for a few scraps while the other takes the main targets. Sure you got Inny, Fay, maybe Talendor but all the other mobs, VP, taken.
The truth is either the server needs a fresh wipe with everyone playing from the beginning, or they need to do exactly as on blue and create a rotation for mobs. The gear gap is huge currently, there is no pvp for high end mobs and so the idea that giving mobs to the 2nd tier guild will cost pvp fights is idiocy because there isn't any pvp for mobs anyways. What needs to be done is allow a 2nd guild the chance to get uncontested pixels so that it creates a strong and viable 2nd guild, then and only then will they be able to show up and do legit contesting.
Otherwise the 2nd guild will continue to be significantly weaker, lose mobs to the higher end guild and the balance will always be one sided. At least handing out pixels to lower guild gives people a reason to log in, to level up and to go after pixels. I'd be as drastic to say that if you give a 2nd tier guild pixels and a person leaves that 2nd tier guild, GMs strip their characters, simply to avoid exploiting this. Its a horrible concept but its the type of drastic measure that needs to be done at this point.
