I think most people are cool with it just increasing "sniping". I understand that you think "sniping" is uncool, but I feel like you have a vested interest in lobbying against it.

"Sniping" makes smaller more organized guilds feasible because if you can snag 1/5 mobs but only have to gear 1/5th the number of players, you're gearing at the same rate as the bigger disorganized guild.

If you're gearing at the same rate as the bigger guild, you'll attract people who meet your more organized standards and potentially start to edge out the larger guild. If you start to edge out the larger guild, PVP will presumably happen.

I've read in this thread that it takes about an hour to form up for raid on this server. If the smaller guilds are that much more organized, why not get there before Holo and defend the zone? 3 guilds of 20-30 highly skilled and organized pvpers could easily force Holo from the zone and either rotate mobs or pvp each other after Holo is gone. That would be like a 500% increase in pvp right there.
