I honestly don't think Velious is going to change a whole lot in the raid scene. It might open up a few more previously inaccessible epics via the planar revamps. But with the mass amount of characters/accounts in circulation on this server I believe that there will just be an increase of raid guilds (TMO/FE/whatever raid guild is around with Velious) is camped out with alts on other raid mobs and just wipe out the scene as it currently is being done.

That being said, Velious does open more 'casual' stuff like Kael arena farming, coldain shawl/ring quests, and probably other content.

What is your suggestion to variance then? As much as I hate it there is probably no way to solve everyone's problems, everyone will have something to bitch and moan about.

Edit: I actually do like variance, but NOT this variance. If I remember my experiences from live the spawn windows were much smaller and also encouraged other time zone players, that it was possible to keep raid mobs in EU/AU spawn times for a few pops before the windows pushed back in to regular NA times. This servers raid scene does encourage zerg guilds and guilds with 40-50+ on call at any given moment.
