Save the Server, Allow guild instanced raid zones

Cue the "not classic" but I would prefer the raid bosses be spawned on request/schedule. Letting each guild get a crack at each boss once every x days. That could be its regular apawn rate or 4 times its regular apawn rate to simulate other guilds getting it.

As I remember it on live each server really only had 2-3 raid guilds.

what happens next in this clip?

Problem with naggy is that his loot is still top tier. Nothing beats bladestopper in its role and utility for pulling contested mobs through trash.
Younger guilds have a better chance at Vox if they approach CSG.

Vox is crazy contested because it's the easiest way to get white scales which are an incredibly hot commodity. Realistically, both Naggy and Vox die ASAP even in Velious.

No, but it would be nice if the younger guilds (Fires of Heaven, College of Adventure) had a chance at getting Naggy/Vox.

These guilds should refocus their targets on other mobs. While I know those two are the quintessential classic raid mobs... Due to their level limitations they aren't friendly for new up and coming guilds who are encouraging players to level together, beyond 52 quite often with no secondary Alts to fall back on. And due to their contested nature with how valuable Prayers, Bladestoppers, Rez Sticks and Bard Epics can be.

Mobs like...

Lord Bob
Kelorek Dar
Vindi
Talendor
Faydedar
PoHate Minis
PoGrowth Minis

None of those are super hardcore socked like the rest of the raid mobs on the server right now.

I think Daldaen is of the opinion that you need to go into Naggy/Vox with twinked 52s with a shit ton of resist gear.

How about we drop that mentality and try to be a little more classic? Not everything is about min/maxing each encounter.

Personally I think it would be great to see a young progressing guild down one or the other and post it up on the forums... P99 needs these guilds more than the burnout zerg guilds like Taken/BDA realize.

No, Daldaen is right here. Taken and Forsaken teamed up to destory the last Nagafen; you need 2 raids with twinked 52s to have a shot.

someone sounds salty.

What an enticing community we must be for new players......

A bit. I can understand flash mobbing a Velious target, because of its difficulty and required raid composition, but why up the ante on the small classic and kunark encounters?

I'll fall for the troll who talks out his ass without knowing a thing about reality.

Last Vox BDA got was with 11 (less than 2 full groups) that were about as geared as your average main at that level. If these guilds want a shot, they just have to prepare and track it.

And if you want to resist a fear, yeah, you'll need a little resist gear. Fortunately a good enough resist set is only gonna run you around 3k.

Now if only I didn't have to log on to the forums to ignore Swish.
