So basically, if your guild can only muster forces for about 2-3 hours a night, or 6-8 hours on a weekend, it would make sense to get 3 or 4 inner ring dragons and avoid Tunare. If they were unrooted and you could clean out the inner ring and vulak in 4 hours (or a few per night) that would still leave a day to do Tunare. Hope what i'm saying makes sense and isn't coming off crazy haha.
This is on point, the change to dragons in ToV slowed down how fast they could be killed so one mega zerg guild has to now decide which targets they want. Otherwise they'll be wrapped up with a raid target longer allowing other guilds to move on a different target.

Exactly, the casuals just can't do it or won't do it, so targets stay up. Asking to be on rotation for mobs they wouldn't normally kill anyway, don't try to kill competitively, or even when given a casual 3 weeks chance still don't kill it - sounds ridiculous to me. Whatever the reason that these mobs stay up really doesn't matter, because in all cases the mob still doesn't die. No sane person would ask for something they don't or won't ever do unless they are just trying to stir the pot and/or maybe prolong the suspension as long as they can.

fair but i don't know how D&D it is that to do these encounters you require 80+ [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
D&D 9e. No roleplaying at all, just dice rolls and updated character sheets. And instead of sitting around in a circle, everyone faces a wall and yells insults at each other.

So if we kill Tunare, will that finally appease you? Maybe they could reset the sleeper for us during the ban so we could prove our worthiness for pixels in ST?

Suspended for anti-social behavior. While still under that suspension, questions the sanity of the rest of the server for being social. Please, some self-awareness.

I mean it's a good plan to continue the talks in the UN for as long as possible to keep the suspension going as long as possible, it's working, can't blame the casuals for that.

Would make sense to ask for things you'd actually do though, makes your arguments have some weight and carry the suspensions even longer. Maybe they'd be considered at that point.

Riot i think takes something like 6ish hours to clear it, AG last i recall took like 10+, not sure what Freedom / AG in joint took but Freedom I dont think has killed her themselves yet. Kittens, I honestly dont know how long their PoG clears have taken but I'm sure it's probably close to AG's pace, maybe faster, idk if they have people ninja afk like I recall a lot of people doing during AG clears. Those times are also for guilds that know the current meta to pull all the minis in as quick a fashion as possible, even still having massive screw ups and wiping with huge setbacks sometimes.

Tunare's loot is good but its a massive time investment and a lot of those people in the "smaller guilds" dont want to necessarily invest 11 hours a day into raiding for 2-4 pieces of loot and maybe some chests off Tunare. Or perhaps they simply have other commitments that they can't push off for that long, combined with the tracking / killing they do on smaller "less desirable" targets. Just because they dont want to kill Tunare doesn't mean they shouldn't have -some- voice into the new rules and agreements that will effect the entire server and not just AG / F / Riot.
Growth really does suck. I recall AG doing it in record time once and that was about 6 / 6.5 hours. But, yes, to your point, typically an all day clear.
