You did not mention your class. Different classes have different raid roles. Raiding as a monk or bard is very different from raiding as a wizard or bard.
Batphone is all. Batphone is God. Back in live, this was also true up until contested content got replaced with instanced content. p99 has no instanced content: it is all contested.
For raid mobs, there are "windows" of time in which they can spawn which raid guilds keep track of. So, a mob can spawn five minutes into that window, or 5 hours. Hence the need for a call list as well as "tracking" characters who track when a mob pops, and then the call goes out for people to log on immediately.
Burn out and turnover under such a raid scene is pretty high. I kind of disagree with Kodim. It is not "very easy." At least for some, jumping out of bed and getting into the world at 3am in 5 minutes on a worknight is pretty much the definition of a massive pita.
But if you can put yourself on that kind of notice, yes, p99 raiding is easy. The most efficient strats are super well-known, and stuff dies very fast as a result.
The big factor is what class you play. If you play a pulling class, you have a learning curve of how to do the strats. But if you play a dps or buffing class, you just have to not be an idiot and listen to instructions.
Ideally, p99 raiding is a perfect fit for you if you are a bubble boy who cannot leave their antiseptic room because of a botched immune system, and so being available to log on in a moment's notice during spawn windows is no problem for you. Just do not be surprised when someone says the actual answer is "moops" and the gm's side with them.
