It wouldn't be difficult to decide once and for all if the actual encounters themselves are difficult. I brought this idea up a long time ago but here it is again.
1.) Put the test server back up and hold a tournament.
2.) Each guild wanting to participate agrees on 4 raid targets and number of people in raid for each target.
3.) GM spawns a raid target for each guild one at a time.
4.) Guild gets 1 chance to take out the target with the number of people agreed upon. Nobody in zone but which ever guild is up to bat and a GM frapsing the encounter.
5.) Rinse, repeat for each guild for each target.
So basically you can split this up over 4-5 days then at the end of the tournament all the videos get posted online for everyone to judge for themselves.
My theory is that the only thing making encounters difficult is the race involved and not having a suficient force available when you need it. In other words most guilds with a sufficient player base should be able to knock out any boss in the game currently when there aren't other guilds breathing down your neck and half your members are offline.
Last time I brought this up the idea was shot down by the top guild (honestly don't remember if it was DA or IB at the time). Can't really blame them because if this was allowed to take place and my theory was proven correct, then it would take away most of the bragging rights people now enjoy.

all players have same gear and you got a deal. any guild with better gear is more likely to complete an encounter.
