Raid scene: Variance Socking

[Tasslehofp99]

Just make every raid mob have a completely random spawn time. This way guilds have no fucking clue when shit is going to spawn, so they have to choose wisely which mobs they park out for/track. A single guild could not possibly cover everything, if everything is always in window.

As it is, whether variance is 16 hours or 2205 hours, if a guild knows a mob is due to spawn between a certain amount of time they are going to sock it. If every single mob in the game could spawn at any time, it forces guilds to choose their targets and focus their forces at those locations.

Would love if this could happen. Sounds ideal.
I've fallen out of raiding for quite a while now due to boredom. Unexpected pops at any time would definitely bring me back. Giddy over here just thinking about it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I think you underestimate the desire to win by people you and I know.

As far as the R guilds go, this would simply discourage them to the point of not even trying. It'd just be the tmo / ib show like before :P Things need to get easier from an organizational level if racing competition is to ever really be a thing.

Red99 has no variance, why do we have it? First 15 isn't an issue and now we have FTE shouts... One is clearly classic and one isn't :P

If you want no variance you could just play red instead of constantly petitioning something thats never going to happen on blue.

It is my opinion that the current GMs have ties with and favor the Red server which is why they allow and even promote and condone all the shitty behavior by the class C guilds to shit on the raid scene on blue in an elaborate plan to push more people toward Red.

So why are you still here shitting up the place.
Go to red already, they have an affinity for psychopaths !
