So here's an idea that isn't classic but gives a raid environment that might feel more classic. When a raid target spawns, you get ported to a random druid ring / wiz spire and have to assemble from there. Warriors have a 50% chance to end up in OOT. That last part is a joke...kinda.

PROS
- Creates a race with true mobilization being the winning factor.
- Eliminates the poop sock.

CONS
- Takes some coding.
- "Not classic bro"

The last point I'd argue against since, in most cases, our current raid environment doesn't resemble anything classic (oddly I do remember some bullshit douche-baggery in NToV, but nothing before that so Velious probably won't fix anything).

It's no secret that the server population knows when a raid target spawns. People are obviously willing to fill up their socks till the poop runneth over to track these. So why not cut the shit and just put everyone on the same ground competition wise. If a mob spawns in off-hours, your bigger/more hardcore guilds are still going to have the best shot at it (which is the way it worked in classic).

I just don't see any other options to solve the current problem with the number of raid capable characters on this server. It's not a classic situation and there will not be a classic solution.
