Green Raid Rules Discussion...

[reznor_]

The meta in Velious literally calls for large forces (80-100) to handle targets. That is the reality. Sorry for you new-to-p99-because-green-is-a-thing folks. This is the way it is.

I've been part of a 40-person squad killing high value targets, and I've done the same with a 120 person squad. I am tired of people who don't understand the distinction between the two and why we are where we are.

We (the players) did not cause this. The server Admins did. The dragons are rooted and different tactics are called for.

It would be one thing to talk shit about a zerg guild back when FTE locks or unrooted dragons were a thing. Now, that's who succeeds across the board, and the players/leaders of these guilds didn't have anything to do with the rooting.

Thanks for your comment, I agree on blue there is a level of need to have enough people to complete a task based on rule sets. That being said, if we work out a solution on green maybe we can enjoy the old days of NTOV racing (One of, if not the most fun moments in my p99 history is NTOV racing).

Yea the problem is the rules. The players are just going to do what they have to. I don't fault people for forming up 120 person squads because it's become the only way to be remotely competitive.

Sadly the rules and resultant toxicity will exist as long as the staff adheres to the 'every guild must agree' mentality. By trying to please everyone you end up pleasing no one. Some kind of majority should be sufficient to make improvements.
