The biggest problem with having trackers zone in to tag is its a race of:

1. Connection speed ( who zones faster )
2. Run speed ( bards can only go tag now. Your bard isnt online? you lose.)
3. Chaotically controlled luck ( I know things can get chaotic now, but imagine 70 players flailing about through EJ trying to get the attention of the pixel dragon all equipped with instant clicky mallets or javs )


I agree that things can be improved, however I think rather than one overarching general rule that fits well for one encounter ( Inny) and is meh for others ( Outdoor dragons) there should be room for in general 'server engagement rules' for specific encounters.

There should be 'common sense' things like, you cannot pull Inny to the zone in to engage him ( thank god this isnt done anymore).

Or how everyone universally knows that if your Fay pull starts to take longer than 6-7 min you are probably kiting him which is a no no.

We can tailor small little adjustments to these encounters so everyone can enjoy them more as that is basically what we all want here. We want an enjoyable game.

People get their enjoyment from different aspects, so most will never agree on one singular thing. This is why its hard to put a black and white rule in place to cover so many different types of encounters all with basically a completely different strats depending on the raid.
