Critical Suggestions for Raid Rules

[Supreme]

This is a constructive thread to add constructive ideas for a raid system to end perma camping.


I will start with some ultra radical ideas!


-remove loot from raid bosses
-make raid zones open/racial PVP
-Boss DT's everyone in the zone and full repops the zone on SPAWN.
-increase raid size definition to be 30 instead of 15.
-AFK disconnects/banish.
-increase boss spawns by number/rate
-open another server
-instanced zones that take plat to activate for guilds



If you would like to flame please create a thread in R&F. I would be interested in seeing some out of the box thinking.

You should make suggestions that don't involve necessitating the developers to hire divorce attorneys and inquire as to the availabilities of their parents' basements.

The guild with the most gnomes at the raid gets the target

more randomized spawning, change it and dont tell anybody about it....could be fun to kill CT and while working out loot, have him pop again [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I really like the following idea:

A. +/- 7 days spawn variance (with raid mobs literally having a chance to pop anytime after it has been killed, no matter how small that probability is).
B. First To Engage rule on all raid bosses. But more clarity is needed on this rule. For example there could be situations where 1 or 2 players can pull a raid boss and die, but by doing that allowing their guild to claim the first priority on kill.

the 7 days spawn variance will probably NOT abolish poopsocking completely (i believe), but it does substantially discourage poopsocking. Moreso since it's now an FTE rule. Also it does give guilds with better mobilisation an edge to killing raid bosses.

Sure, let's give them another reason to mass recruit!
Targets have been camped with as many as 40-50 from a single guild in a zone at once, 30 is an easily attainable number that doesn't address the issue.

Most number of gnomes per raid force gets first dibs on target.

I like the FFA PVP idea. Might even get some /guildwars outta it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
