Problem is it took them 4 days to do it, and none of them even attempted to dungeon crawl, which was the focus of their original complaints.

A/A is not rotating trak, and doesn't rotate draco... there are a total of 3-4 targets that A/A don't race each other for right now due to how many petitions stemmed from just those encounters. more misinformation from those a self proclaimed know it all. Its only hypocrisy to the uninformed, like you. What is funny though is even though its apparently common knowledge that A/A are rotating some things, these other guilds like CSG or rustle haven't even tried to capitalize on the fact that the A/A response will be slower than usual.
The skill involved in killing dragons isn't related to any one player pushing a button, it's related to the coordination between the 50 players pushing buttons. With enough setup time this becomes trivial for most mobs, as evidenced by the casual guilds killing mobs after 4 days+.

The skill required for coordination becomes greater when you have to insta-pull mobs with low player numbers as people are logging in. It would get even greater if the insta-pull made a comeback with the new leash mechanics.

Yes, the fact that the casuals haven't even contested the rotated mobs when they're left up for hours shows how bad an idea implementing this stupid lockout mechanic was.
