Know what'd be a better system? Every mob only spawning on sim repops that happen regularly. Get rid of tracking get rid of variance get rid of poopsocking. Every dragon/raid mob in the game spawns on a random schedule of sim repops once a week or so. It's been suggested many times by many different people and has very little downside and many upsides. Have no idea why it hasn't been done or at least tried.
As far as raiding on P99 goes. Sim repops are just about as fun as it gets imo. Every guild racing around and trying to strategize on what target to go for and try to figure out what other guilds are doing what so you know where to go next. Big guilds can't monopolize everything when it all spawns at the same time so the smaller guilds get to do stuff too. Only potential downside I can see is if the repop happens at a bad time and you happen to be working all day or have other RL obligations and you basically miss all the good raids for a week. I can see that part sucking but I still think overall it'd be better than what we have now.
