Subject: BLUE: Don't make raid groups larger than 40 |
| |
Some recent posts by blue have kinda implied that they're open to the idea oof having larger raid groups.
I'm sure there's a lot of pros and cons to this, but mine is a specific "con".
It will KILL the current guild setup on existing servers.
It's hard enough to get 40 reliable people on ever night to raid, and if that number went up, I can see the following happen:
The top guild or guilds on every server/faction will recruit/poach/steal all the top players from the lesser guilds to fill these new spots. The lesser guilds will lose their reliable, veteran leadership, and progression will stall. So the "casual raider" (oxymoron?) will miss out on a lot of the end game stuff.

As far as I have seen we have maintained a message that we are not looking to expand the raid group sizes in the expansion above what is currently available, and that we're putting more focus on smaller group content.

Q u o t e:
120 man encounters would truly be epic. Where you have like five different fights going on at once and there is mass coordination needed. /drool
There's always a possibility we may implement something crazy-big at some point in the future, but that isn't in our current plans for this expansion.
