Vulak takes all of maybe 7 min to kill. It takes more time for a lot of guilds just to mobilize for anything. They will sweep vulak, and move to tormax on their other 60's parked at the ZL.



That is the beauty of the current system. No guild has to choose one or the other any guild with the right dedication and luck can have it all. Just because you're in a guild that apparently does nothing, doesn't mean that rampage is getting every target.



This is already true with the current system. I really don't think you raid here and are trying to make changes to a system you know nothing about. Vindi is up every 8 hours or so for anyone that wants him. I've seen velkator up for 2 days, woushi gorenaire and talendor up all day. I will say however I think it a lack of any efforts if smaller guilds aren't getting any of these low tier targets. Literally last sev, only asgard and forsaken even bothered to show up.
Vulak takes far longer than 7 minutes to kill. Correct me if I'm wrong, but before you can kill Vulak, it helps to have Aaryonar, Cekenar, Dagarn the Destroyer, Eashen of the Sky, Ikatiar the Venom, Jorlleag, Lady Mirenilla, Lady Nevederia, Lord Feshlak, Lord Koi'Doken, Lord Kreizenn, Lord Vyemm, Sevalak, and Zlexak dead. Maybe that can all be done in ~6 minutes, but I bet it takes longer than a 7th minute to kill Vulak.

That means on a repop, Rampage is going to spend more of the night in NToV killing as many of the above dragons as possible. With no variance, Rampage will have to spend at least as much time in NToV the next week as they did on repop night.

How often does FAT beat Rampage? Is it more than half of the time? I don't really know. If its true that you guys regularly beat Rampage to targets and that you're pretty much always going after the same targets, then yeah I totally see how no variance would be bad for you.

I've said a dozen or so times on these forums that I don't raid here yet. Most of the arguments against no-variance here assume that magically Vulak will be spawning alone during prime time on Wednesday night while the rest of NToV and everything else in the game has been dead for 3 days and isn't going to pop any time soon. How much stuff do you need to clear in order to kill Tormax? I bet you can do IZ to dead Tormax in 15-20 minutes. Same with Kland. Zland might bit a tougher engage but I bet he's also pretty quick. How long does it really take to kill Vulak?
