I know this topic gets passed around all the time and I thought I'd point out a possible fix? It's not classi. Though so I understand if it gets shot down.
Include boss coins in their relative zone. I.E Coin of Cazic drops in Plane of fear.
Coins are trade able for selling to other guilds if desired.
Coins have a .5% drop rate off zone trash or whatever GM sets it to.
Coins summon the boss.

I dont think that sounds like a very good change; Albeit an interesting and creative thought process was no doubt involved in coming up with it, it sounds like you'd essentially be farming trash mobs to get bosses to spawn?
I feel like that would just make matters worse. The biggest most powerful guilds with the beardiest necks (I can say this, I am a proud owner of a neckbeard. it's OUR word damn it) and poopiest socks would have that shit on lockdown and because of PNP they'd never have to give it up as long as someone(s) from their guild showed up to take the camp before they left. This is of course assuming I am picking up what you're putting down properly. This could be a gross misinterpretation of a) your proposed idea b) current raid mechanics (I am too low level to raid, but I've been an active member on and off since 2012, and I have on occasion happened upon some of the nonsense necessary to make sure raiding is fair.
Hate to jump on the bandwagon but I think the only solution to 99 Blue's raid scene is more raid content, ie velious. That being said, I feel like velious is the most bland expansion to ever hit EQ-- That was around the era where I started and I always felt the content released during that era (although I didnt experience much of it untilafter velious, being an altoholic)
