Please elaborate on how a smaller guild could pull a target with enough effort. It's a horseshit argument.

Full Circle was the last small guild to really try and make a push. They sat at Inny for days only for TMO to show up in the last hours with a 2 group force to try and snake a kill for a target that they didn't even give a shit about.

If you want targets on this server the template has been presented by TMO (and every other guild before TMO) and then duplicated by FE. You need to have a large roster in order to pull 30-40 players at any point of the day and need to be camped out right in front of the designated target fully buffed. You need to track for over 96 hours of real time if necessary, you need to be able to fend of FTE snipes, trains, leapfrogging, and rules lawyering. You'll have to suffer through spies, moles, and any number of methods of out of game warfare. After you've done all that you'll still need to win at forumquest to make sure the propaganda machine doesn't stunt the growth or reputation of your blossoming guild.

Them once you've weathered that storm the next step is VP where the competition can just blatantly train you.

The raid scene is a joke and thinking that TMO is suddenly feeling generous now that FE is gaining momentum is just another form of gamesmanship. No one is giving shit up, if you want a target get ready to get dirty.
