Inny, Sev, and Fay moved to de-prioritized. Sev specifically as CAT A guilds will have free reign in VP

+1

if your raid group Killed said raid mob last week/spawn cycle; they must wait one full week/ full spawn cycle to attempt such mob again.... pretty simply

Variance would Need to be removed and spawn cycles adjusted/normalized.

Also I would really recommended adding Epic "ghost mobs" in now, so people can complete epics.

this tier system seems very easy to exploit need something simple, like live

while there are ridiculous variences that can cause mobs to go 10 or more days before spawning, this should be amended to CAT A guilds will not go for the first priority spawns of each month instead. 7 days allows a rather high probability that a lot of these mobs will still spawn after that

We're heavily negotiating to have these variances reduced. Otherwise, we suggested sitting out on each priority mob that spawns first each week.

JayN, I agree the proposed plan here is crap, but so is the alternating bullshit. Just means TMO and FEIB alternate everything.

Velious did a lot of this.

I guess we are considered Category C? Which did not exist on that proposal.

The Mystical Order, Forceful Entry, and Inglorious Basterds will start in category A. All other guilds will start as Category B.

CAT A guilds have lots of newer players that still want to raid lower targets. What this actually might do is cause people to join CAT B guilds to farm their gear then join the CAT A guild for when they are ready to move on to VP.

You say this like it would be a bad thing....it happens already. At least other guilds would be getting low priority targets.

Decent idea in theory...

Poopsocking: If anything, this just helps guilds with alt-armies even more so than now. I'd rather see the inverse, you must be logged into the character to poopsock. The mobilization of just logging into a toon already camped out at a raid boss allows for spreading out the kills on different spawns. Plus if people are actualyl logged in, there can be an agreement on who gets FTE in case a rotation is desired.

Variance: Lower it down to like +/- one hour, that way people dont' just time it down to the last second.

The 7-day window: Make it 10 days, that way there is a *chance* of having 2 7-day spawn mobs pop in the same window. Plus it's a more even 1/3 of the month split. Or just go flat out the first spawn of each month as Catherine suggested, that way we aren't fooling ourselves.

Prioritization: If it is true that CLASS-A guilds *cannot* go after deprioritized mobs except for that first window, then sure, sounds good. But if it's just "we'll try not to" then eh, not quite the line in the sand that would make the deal even.

So what Im getting from this so far is that some of you want to hold the raid scene hostage to force some kind of calendar rotation or communist russia mob rationing system, while simultaneously accusing TMO and IB/FE of stacking the deck to favor themselves. Ok cool.

lol that is what it seems they want. Its not going to happen. Push for a little more , sure. But a full blown rotation is not going to be enforced by GM's.
With this proposal the big guilds would be leaving up lots of raid mobs each month that THEY CANNOT TOUCH. Yet the big guilds mobs are open game for everyone. So it really is fair once the kinks get worked out.
