Guild Status / Politics - Returning Player

[Sumdyar_VZ]

Saw the release of Velious in August, myself and a few friends are interested in playing again.

I'm curious as to what the current politics are like.

- Is there actually competition for raid targets, or is there just one super zergy guild that dominates them all?
- If not, how many raiding guilds are there?
- Do raid mobs still respawn on an exact timer, or is it now like live with the +/- X amount of hours.
- Are there any known entire guilds returning for Velious?

Also, non-guild related:

- I was told that resists were sorta fucked a few months ago. (Tash/Malo always landing even with insane MR, which allowed roots and even blinds to land easily afterwards), is this still the case?

Thanks!

-there is competition in the sense that there are multiple guilds that try to kill raid mobs, not much PvP happens and when it does, it's pretty one sided; the #2 guild is more of a zerg than the #1 guild
-there are 2 raiding guilds
-there is still no variance
-the old TMO crew from the blue server just started up here, not sure about any other guilds returning

-the days of tash/malo/blind/root retardism are over. resist system is actually in a pretty good place right now. few more kinks to work out like melee hit rate, epic mage pet being too easily crowd controlled, etc.

Because sub-60 players in non-planar and equal numbers is zerging according to empire. Epic troll indeed considering at least 2-5 of those players at any given time are spies and are actively streaming TS for empire.

zerging = massive amounts of low hp "zerglings" who are easy to kill but in numbers overrun a target.

Zerglings imply we have at least 2x your numbers, they are closer to even sir gyno

listen, i aint gonna argue wit u.

just saying wut a zerg is classically. u cant say all ur zerglings are underequipped cuz dats wut zerglings traditionally are.

empire has evolved from zerg to protoss.

gg is currently zerg.

i really liked how you guys killed faydedar and then good guys brought a 40 man raid to timorous deep several hours later and then people sat there literally all night tracking a faydedar that was never going to spawn
