Proposed raid system

[Spyder73]

On one hand, I don't understand why we can't all share. On the other hand, everybody getting dragon kills is NOT CLASSIC...But getting BiS loot on a character literally means nothing here. P99 is about alts, quests, leveling, and doing things you never did on live. very much a "enjoy the journey" scenario.

I wish all of you the best - I will be spending the bulk of my time in non-raid zones. I think the only mobs that should be "competed" for are mobs that drop epic pieces that a guild member needs, ST key mobs, and Vulak. Everything else should be rotated and the insanity of 25 man tracking teams put to death

While I do not play on Red, I do play Eve Online. I propose that these boss mob zones become a player versus player zone. So if you want something, prepare to fight for it; and once you have it, prepare to defend it. Thus instead of these little foot races and whatnot I read about, bring enough people to defeat the mob in question _and_ enough to keep yourself alive.

BDA deserves at least 40% imo, many mouths to feed u no

[Sadre Spinegnawer]

Whenever a dragon spawns, all raiding level 60's are auto-encumbered, all casters are silenced, and all are ported to odus. Ready, set, race.

New raid system -

Aftermath and Awakened get 35-40% (each) of ToV dragons
BDA gets 10-20%
CSG 5-10%
Anon/Div 5-10%

New guilds can break into this if they prove themselves somehow. The percentages are up for debate of course, not the point.

We do a lottery system for first picks or come up with some way to pick dragons BEFORE they spawn. For example the pick order could go Aftermath -> Awakened -> BDA -> Aftermath -> Awakened -> CSG -> Anon/Div -> Aftermath etc... The next week Aftermath/Awakened and CSG/AnonDiv would switch order.

Some guilds prefer the rush of the race - fine by me. Let's say those two guilds are Awakened and Aftermath for the purposes of this discussion. Awakend and Aftermath can choose to race each other for their dragons. Maybe Awakened gets more, maybe Aftermath gets more, that is their choice. They can essentially pool their dragons together and duke it out.

This way each guild can still play how they want. The adrenaline junkie guilds can poopsock and race each other to their hearts content. The casual guilds who prefer the playstyle of clearing to a dragon and killing it can still play their way.

Majority of pixels still go to those that are putting in the most time and resources. Aftermath and Awakened can go back to Mage CoH pulling or do whatever they want. I expect the other guilds will clear to the mob and take their time, which is their preference.

Thoughts?

pass.

Since those leaders don't spend any time thinking about how this all works

literally LoL'd

I know I spent way too much time thinking about the intricacies of this server.

Your statement is ignorant of the time/effort leadership of the raiding guilds put into this game.

Where's Swish when you actually need him and his gifs? I think the sarcasm went way over your head.
