It’s pushing the game to the limit.

It also trivializes end game content

I'm going to make a prediction now: this will not fix the raid scene. In six months (or however long) the staff will be right back to being overwhelmed with petitions, and meanwhile the same "1%" of the server will continue to dominate all raid content rather than sharing with the top 10% that is capable of defeating it.

"Competition" is the problem here. But I'm not saying any of this to start yet another fight about rotations (please, don't try to start one). I'm only saying it so that in six months I can quote myself, in yet another attempt to argue for the best system for P99: rotations.

Going to be hard for the casual guilds to clear multiple adds as well in a competitive environment. Guess we got to test it out.

So.. when are hybrids being fixed?

This is the important question, all this other nonsense is just a distraction.

Absolutely. Its all smoke and mirrors!

It's an open world competitive server from 1999 era, I don't get why people think there is somehow a magic trick to fixing the competitive raid scene, there isn't. Making people "clear ToV" in any sort of way will be way too time consuming for this era and just cause people to quit.

The content is the difficulty of the pull. It takes an entire team to get a dragon into the zone in. It's extremely difficult and a lot of fun. You can go to any old Everquest server and crawl content but P99 had the pulling. It is a unique experience that cannot be replicated anywhere else. It's honestly tragic to see it end.
