Weighted Point Value System - Serverwide Raid Idea Thread

[Buriedpast]

I'm IB, for reference.

Not that it should matter.

But this is, I'll say again, just excellent. The numbers need attention, but the basic principle and execution are so simple and easy to police.

For others, this is the kind of thing Rogean wants.
He doesn't want a rotation.
He doesn't want two guilds alternating 12 of 15 raid mobs.
He doesn't want petitions about convoluted shit.
He doesn't want poopsocking
He doesn't want huge tracking and extended variance windows
He doesn't want to have to code in policing for stupid raid rules.
He doesn't want to have his staffs time wasted by endgame guild crap. The 10/90 rule.

This is by far the most stable and fair I can see to meet his requests and requirements, to limit Gm interaction, and to make things absolutely white and black... Except poopsocking: just don't.

Well said.

Keep in mind that Velious is coming, and that a drastically changed server will require redefined raid rules. When velious gets here, there will be content that FEIB and TMO can handle but nobody else can. Should they be penalized for not letting the raid mobs sit around unengaged? Of course not.

I think that in the relatively (compared to the age of this server) short time until Velious, the point system is simple and effective enough. It also should be fairly simple for guild leaders to hash out the details before Rogean wtfpwns everyone for being asshats.
