Max fears with 255MR on klandicar. Ate a lot of them. I think they're landing for max too often.

Even Wuoshi at 255mr was a couple max duration fears. My experience with Sont was a bunch of max duration fears for nearly the entire fight at 255MR. If you're forced to contort your raid force by logging off buff classes and onto rogues so you have enough redundant DPS to win the fight through the broken fear then something is definitely wrong.

Raid forces are way more advanced due to 4 years of Kunark, and back on live Velious was being conquered with way less level 60s in way worse gear so it's expected for those encounters to be harder when your raid force isn't as seasoned. That is not even comparable to the average p99 raid guild. The content should be challenging for sure but it's way beyond that based on my experience with it.

Yes, you can kill the content with the right class mixture and the right strats, but is that mixture realistic when one guild is fielding an entire alt force of rogues (which was never the case on live) or when 3 seasoned guilds combine forces to make an attempt and still sometimes wipe. To me that reeks of unclassic tuning.

6 -8 rogues is not an alt force, which is what we had for Zland and Kland low number kills. In fact, they were all mains.

I just think guilds could prepare a bit better and work on their class composition for raids. It would go a long way.

I mean we have seen Rampage with literally 15 rogues for a Sont kill. Lots of them were alts. Nothing wrong with that, Rampage has people with the mindset and time to have alts to field the perfect raid force for untuned encounters.

But most of the other guilds don't. It doesn't matter though, the fearing dragons are overtuned compared to classic Velious and that's why they should be fixed, no other reason.

I may be wrong, but didn't devs state that they were gonna beef up encounters a bit from classic since Kunark was out so long?

No. Classic encounters has always been the goal when it can be accomplished. There's minor stuff they can't implement due to the Titanium client like removing item linking, or Xenovorash spawning on the edge of the lake instead of the platform in the lake (it's buggy) but raid encounters were always supposed to be as classic as possible.
