End of the rotation?

BDA wants to get rid of poopsocking, variance, and the culture of training at VP/planes that currently goes on in Class C and formerly went on before for every raid mob.

That has no bearing on the current Class R discussions.

Also, BDA (mostly Anichek) has been the one mediating and trying to keep the rotation together for the last year.

I remember BDA members crying about not wanting to have to recruit zerg members to compete, and how they all have lives and jobs and can't be expected to kill stuff at 3am like some no-life neckbeards in TMO. And now they have demanded that these other smaller class R guilds, resort to zerg recruiting in order to 'earn their pixels'. I might have to start digging up quotes from BDA members a year ago to show how some of you are literally using the exact arguments TMO did.

i believe we were always concerned about guilds who can't kill the mob somehow being on the rotation for the mob? That hasn't changed.

You think this Class C/Class R system is gonna stick around once Velious drops? Good luck with that. So Class R has two options... foster SOME semblance of urgency to kill the mobs while the rotation still allows us to do so uncontested, to better prep us all for the Velious shitshow, or we can all be completely non-competitive against Class C guilds while they roll all over us when everything goes back to FFA.

Which do you think is better for the entirety of the server? TMO/IB dominating the raid scene once again because we all got fat and lazy with "welfare loot"? Or some of us at least standing a chance at the race for targets?

At least BDA, Taken, and Divinity have the fucking foresight to see the writing on the wall.

These are just from one shitty thread about how the mobs per month in a rotation would really be 2.69 mobs per month per guild.

On the upside, having a solid foundation in place when Velious is released means when raid content increases by 2-5 times, then the transition will be easier and we won't all be raid suspended as Velious is released while we negotiate new terms.

Everyone that is currently labled as tier 2 are probably happy they are going to be able to see any raid targets at all now, compared to before where they did not. The upper end Tier 2 guilds are more than happy to concede the extra targets they "may" have gotten in a less restrictive agreement. This is because under the tier 2 playstyle, even though we may see a few less targets in the higher end of tier 2, we will finally see some targets that we never got to see in the previous abusive environment. (AKA Venril Sathir, Trakanon, and Cazic Thule)

I see tier 1 and tier 2 as different playstyles, not different ranks.

Everyone has certainly gotten more cynical in their view of seeing raid mobs.

Remember, BDA is trying to set tiers with tiers now, and is creating tears within tears.
