First to Engage: Exploiting the mechanic?

[Elderan]

I have a better idea...

As soon as a boss spawns it turns that zoned FFA PVP.

May the best players win... Problem solved.

funny thing is Red server has been crying for a variance forever thinking it will give casuals a better shot at a raid target.

Yep, those crying for variance have no clue.

I actually think this idea is brilliant! +1

But I would also support a huge (4-5x) variance increase.

this guy joined red when there was pretty much one guild. has continued to play in said zerg, recruiting every player on the server. hes also been exploiting vp as well as other raid mobs for at least 6 months now. dirty player, just naming and shaming.

Thanks, but just because someone is a bad person in your opinion doesn't mean they'll have bad ideas [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

People who think this way should just play on the red server.

May the people who want to compete against players compete against players... Problem solved.

It doesn't exactly have much to do with PVP, the pragmatism of this solution comes from preparedness. If one d-bag is exploiting by tagging a raid mob and kiting or something, you can just have the larger group take him out. Coupled with enormous variance, this would give smaller guilds who happen to be in the right place a much better chance at experiencing the content.

I mean if you see a TMO tracker tag something, just kill him. Problem solved.

+1 idea here.

Added rule: Guild loots one item from dead TMO tracker.
Raid Loot = TMO tracker loot + normal raid loot.

New Small Guild Strategy:
Poopsock TMO trackers.
