Raid Scene - A RnF Repost

[Oleris]

Oh, and I would also do something with sleepers tomb. The open raid targets there are, the more the casual guilds will also get.

[Raev]

Oleris you are missing the point.

competition good; tracking/poopsocking/24-hour zerg guilds bad

Any real fix of the raid scene has to address this. R/C/FFA did not, and that's why it failed.

Too many casual guilds mouth to feed as the line grew bigger.

I wouldn't rotate the mobs between the casual guilds, but force them to compete with each other or make agreements between the stronger guilds.

They could also stop spawning 7 day targets and make them spawn all at once with a quake every 1-7 days to help the casual guilds.

Why not just make all the bosses have ph's with very rare chance to spawn, then once you kill boss you have to give up the camp to next guild. What you think? Maybe? Retarded idea? Hard to foresee all the consequences of something like that

Let's just remove the key requirements for VP and ST.

I know this will get lost in the scuffle, but the staff shouldn't have to watch every fraps video or feel the need to get intimate with guild leaders.

I know his time has come and gone, but Uthgaard probably would have said something like this over a random dispute in ToV:



"You guys got 20 minutes to figure something out or your both suspended a month."



And it worked. Guilds worked things out. I don't remember Uthgaard suspending a single guild for a month either (if my memory serves me right). The community respected Uthgaard's handle on the raid scene, and you were best to keep him as far away as possible. If he showed up, it likely wasn't good for any party.


I'm not saying we need an Uthgaard, but we need someone who knows what the hell is going on, that doesn't mess around, or mingle within the community.


Force guilds to work together, watch their own fraps videos, do their own skype chats, and decide their own fate.


The staff shouldn't have to be troubled with this anymore.
