Sync raid spawn timers that fall in common windows. Say trak drops, when calculating its new random repop the window for this overlaps with when Cazic is already going to spawn. Have the code that picks the time sync it to spawn exactly when Cazic spawns. This keeps it ~random, keeps it within the same frequency, but gives two guilds a chance since its harder for 1 guild to be in two places at once.

Or maybe the 400+ people who think that somehow crying about how they aren't capable of getting raid targets will wake up and realize that maybe, just maybe, trying it will be more effective than crying about it. It's your fault you don't bother competing. The bs you hear around these forums is a lot like hearing some minimum wage drug addict complaining about how he doesn't get 6 figures and drive around a ferrari. You get the same opportunity every single other player gets. That isn't the top 2 guilds' fault. It's on you.

To even attempt killing raid mobs here you need to put in a retarded amount of time and effort. Simply put, for a majority of this server its not worth it. This is why you see the server pop fluctuate so often and so extremely. I pray velious isn't too late to fix this, and that variance is removed or re-thought out in such a way that one guild cant possibly monopolize the content for 2 years straight like we have seen since IB beat kunark and left.

I don't see the issue with this. Things in classic took retarded amounts of time. I spent 12+ hours grinding through 59, killing uncontested mobs with a great group. Putting off bathroom breaks, not eating or sleeping. Ditching school for a CR from last night's raid. It's not a game designed for casual players. If you want end game content half your life needs to be devoted to this.

This server, however, is mostly casual players, and a few extremely casual like me that play less than one hour a day. Will never have epic, will never raid, hell probably won't even group. Couldn't care less about the end game scene because that's not what I'm here for. But you can't propose that the staff make everything easier just because more people aren't willing to try harder.
