Yes, it is what is supposed to be done when a guild trains poop mountain. You concede the mob and move on. Regardless if fraps is running or not.

It happens, no one thinks Asgard did it on purpose. The chaos is part of the fun.

As for variance, the best idea I've heard mentioned isn't to decrease variance, its to increase it right to the entire duration of a mobs respawn time. So if Trakanon has a three day respawn, make variance +/- 3 days. EVERY raid mob would ALWAYS be in window. No more socking. It would all be about mobilization.

it would also be about which guild is willing to put a poor soul to track that shit for days, yo

Really good videos dude. Keep it up.

Classic EQ = no variance. It's pretty stupid to keep in hybrid penalties, no luclin graphics, and pet exp stealing, but then crap out when it comes to something as big as how raiding worked. The server philosophy has always been to make things as classic as possible...except for raiding because some are of the opinion (based on no evidence) that this way works better for more people. I honestly think it's just a cover to deal with the problem of server lag with hundreds of people in a zone.

I don't think anyone who plays on the server likes variance. Just throwing that out there since you seem to think people enjoy it.

Most people don't...but some like the how things are very competitive. Others assume that it would be even worse without it. How I see it, is when vindi didn't have variance we were talking guild rotations...now its the usual competitive BS where at least half the people that show up waste their time.
