Default Sugguested change to raid rule(s)?

I might be way out of my element but here is an idea (I can hear the rings of its not classic already!!!)

I agree with no camping/binding at raid mobs and this should stay in place, but only changes Id toss out there is this

Spawn windows changed form 3(for some mobs) and 7 1/2 day like times to making them all (all on raid forum page)(remember classic era from release to luclin was 3 years) 2 day min respawn time to 7 and half max.

I dont think there are many people willing to sit ontop of each mob for 5 and half days (max wait time). The number of members of any one guild is no longer a factor, number of trackers.

Thoughts?

Guilds would just start poopsock shifts.


i say we get rid of the rotation, make everything FFA, and keep the lockouts.

You're joking right? The only reason the drastically non-classic rule set is in place is because guilds comprised completely of basement-dwelling neckbeards played twenty hours a day and at on every mob of value every day of the week.

It used to be like this and we used to track through 90 hour windows. The fuck makes you think people won't do it again?

100 people from 8 different guilds sitting in Trak's lair waiting for him to spawn for a week circa 2 years ago.jpeg

God. And people still argue that this was a better way to play this game.

you do realize that simulated respawns were increased due solely to having the rotation, right?

no rotation = less repops = less loot for EVERYBODY
