do not understand the "rush" thingy. You want adrenaline, just empty you adrenals. Don't have to press buttons or jump out a plane or anything at all ^^

On topic though, implementing OP suggestion would essentially free up a bunch of dragons for other guild as the top end put a hold on kills whenever Vulak, AoW, Doze, etc were in window. That is until A/A splintered. Not going to happen though and don't think it is a particularly good idea :/
Regarding the rush thing... Being forced to rush into an engage due to the rules of the server was the only way to provide an actual challenge to the 24/7 competitive guilds. None of the dragons are a challenge to them when they have an hour to prepare. These guilds built themselves around the 24/7 raid scene and have member bases in excess of 100-125+ members. They'd need to split in three to have some semblance of a challenge.

But when the dragon is in your camp within 2-5 minutes of spawning, you may not even have a warrior or 4-5 clerics, and you're tanking with a Paladin and 3 clerics until more log in.

Basically it was a self inflicted way of forcing the content to become difficult by rushing it and killing it so quickly that half of your guild couldn't even respond to a batphone if they wanted to. The things you have to do to make Velious interesting :/.

Rotation is the only solution. FTE racing is not classic. Reduce or eliminate variance. The experiences offered by Phinny and P99 are totally different. To offer phinny as "solution " is silly. I am a former Original Gangsters Club member and I loved my time on Phinny.

I think if the top two guilds joined in on the rotation their racers might find all this cool free time to do other things in the game or even in life, rather than waiting hours and hours to track a mob.

P.S. Maybe the staff we would be more willing to have Earthquakes if they knew it was going to benefit more guilds than the top 2 all the time.

They definitely benefit other guilds. Crazy to think otherwise or naive.
