Over the last 3 repops (the ones that happened a few weeks apart from each other), the tracking guilds averaged every mob except Faydedar, the L52s (Naggy, Vox, or both), Maestro, Yael, and Overseer of Air. Divinity did some good work and got Talendar on the last repop. That's 3-5 out of the 20ish that the tracking guilds do not get. While getting 3-5 per respawn is more than the non-tracking guilds typically get in a given week, it is not a "significant" portion of the raid content by any means. Also, raid targets still do not die at exactly the same time, so even without variance the next respawn will be more spread out than the repop assuming the next spawn is itself not a repop.
No variance raids with every target spawning at the same time will go as they do now without warning, or the non-tracking guilds will each get 1 target or less before they are out-mobilized to the second target by guilds with better mobilization.
No variance raids with targets spread out enough that everyone has time to mobilize will have all interested guilds sitting on spawn spamming temperate flux staves with the duct tape until spawn and trying for FTE. This shit-stain will stay until people get tired of it and either stop competing or move to a rotation system.
The best thing to help the repop scene would be making VP a non-train zone. Right now it is advantageous for the VP guilds to kill non-VP targets first and then duke it out in VP. If you were not allowed to train in VP, you'd see people fighting for FTE on PD before they ran to kill Trak lest their competition snipe PD while they are uncontested at Trak.
