If things spawn between 2am and noon on a weekday I'm betting only TMO and VD could field a force of 30 people to down most high end targets.

Maybe at one point variance was good for the server but currently it only caters to the hardcore raiding guilds. Trak spawned at 2am last night and TMO smoked him with no competition. Most other guilds aren't going to wake up for pixels with work in the morning. I'd be surprised if Taken had more than 12 for talendor this morning.
+10000.

Variance was implemented because people would simply park 150 players on the spawn point, blow the mob away in 10 seconds, and then the GMs would have to check their encounter logs to figure out who won. It works by making raiding so annoying in terms of tracking and batphoning that most people don't do it.
