How Raid Ties Should Be Sorted

Thoughts?

My guild is especially aroused. Stingers aplenty.

Ive never solo'd a raid so idk, but if two people solo it, does both of their damage register? Will both people be listed with ~10 million damage?

Many guilds already came up with a solution. Use the first 24 hours as a "champion phase" where you can send in one character only to do as much damage as possible. After that open the raid up like normal. There are no more ties.


I'd rather CG spend their resources on other things that don't have a simple player fix.

That messes up TM and can still have players tie when FFA opens up.

Yes.

A problem arousing in guilds, especially strong ones, is solo'ing the Rancor only to find player ID sorts out the scores (also happens with 0's).

Now for 0's and other tied damage, I think it should be random.

For full solo's, I think it should be who did the most overkill damage.

This way players won't have to suffer lower rewards for joining the game as little as a day later.

Thoughts?

I like the overkill idea...who has stacked the most dots and gets the highest finishing blow with culling blade :D

Lol, I just think it's better than what we have now.

And to add to the original post:

If overkill damage is tied, then it becomes random on who takes the higher rank.

Lowest overkill, to reward greater efficiency?

i'd settle for just totally random when scores are tied. (0 scores and full solo's)
Not ideal, but goed enough for me.

Considering everything else RNG related, I don't see why this should be left out.

Should be whomever post first gets the top spot

Exactly. Full solo "buys you a ticket" to lottery, which sorts the ranks. Better than current sorting by player id...

First world problems my friend. I tend to agree with the quoted poster, I would rather they work on actual issues other than to resolve an issue where a lower tier raid is too easy.

QoL fix if they have some time, sure... but otherwise fix/improve other things.

If you have a problem with so many solo's why do you care about TM messing up?

If you still have problems with TIEs after sending in one person to attack, I don't know what to say? "What if pigs fly out of my butt?" would be likely.
