That sounds like a humble brag but the reason I'm posting that is to show to you that Rampage does not have free reign outside of ST anymore. They have to compete and fight for every dragon. Asgard/Forsaken have one shotted Vyemm right in front of them and very rarely wipe once a dragon is in camp, so Rampage is forced to respect the threat and perform at a high level. Gone are the days where they could pick and choose and leave tough targets up.

Congrats by the way.

I think variance is a mistaken question, other than debating to say no variance. Variance is variance is variance. It results in batphonology. Deal, amirite?

I think a more interesting option, is maintaining or even increasing variance, but implementing more periodic but limited earthquakes, which would reset windows.

Earthquakes are fun. Can we agree on that? I would gladly trade increased earthquakes for an even larger variance window. Earthquakes are basically like a pixel juicebox, icy cold.

As to making it so other guilds can get stuff, a pointless matter. There is plenty of content to farm one's heart out on. Dragons and bosses are their own reality. Deal. We all do.

After all, the dying guild bda isn't competing with Rampage. But yet we continue. Like some sick retinue of electronic tuberculosis patients grasping at the few remaining gasps of oxygen in a near empty tank, we continue on.

Hell yeah we can agree. I think the reason this thread is focused on the variance changing is because we all know how the plea for moar quakes goes. It's all a futile effort. Zero fucks are given by the server staff when it comes to altering the flow, frequency or timing of the raid mob pops. Quakes happen so rarely and randomly and thats clearly the way they like it. If I were them I wouldn't want to deal with the extra petitions either.
