Request: Automatically register every guild member with zero damage when Raid starts

If it only gives rewards to people who have contributed toward buying the raid, how is that different than arena rewards? People who weren't online right as the raid opened would still be rewarded for the completion of content they helped to unlock.

I am not in a guild where this is an issue but I'd +1 this. I always remind everyone to enter the raid even if they zero damage it just for rewards. Giving it to everyone would be nice.

Members need to participate in the actual raid in order to get prizes. Not a hard concept. It shouldn't be automatic, then people are rewarded for doing nothing. Put down your soccer trophies and think about it.

The reason that I'm proposing this is because it hinders recruiting if you don't have a 24 hr zero damage period. People wanna join guilds where they won't have to be online at 1 PM middle of workday to raid but still get stuff. Guilds that don't have a 24 hr zero damage period aren't as attractive even though they may be an awesome guild. Then if someone goes before 24 hrs and the officers have to enforce it with a boot or something, it further compounds recruiting efforts.

Seems like this is only really an issue with the Rancor raid as nobody is doing Heroic Tank in 30 minutes without coordination.

LoL, Zero damage period is the definition of participation trophy. Lets just formalize it and be done with it.

But if you weren't there to participate at all, you shouldn't get a participation trophy. If I'm on a soccer team, and we have a tournament, but I just don't show up I don't deserve any participation trophy because I did not participate. 1) I let down the team because I knew what time that tournament started, and 2) I didn't help at all, I didn't even sit on the bench the whole time cheering or anything, I was just not there. Say my soccer team wins and they are given trophies, do I get a trophy? No, I'm not there to receive it. 24hour 0 damage rule is fine, at least those people showed that they play fairly regularly, but like it's just not that hard to log in and register 0 damage... Theres no need to add this imo.

Your analogy only works if you consider that you paid to be on that soccer team, and without your payment no one would get to play. Everyone contributes tickets just by playing the game, and without that no one raids.

You are right about one thing though: doing a zero damage is easy. But why should we be forced to start a raid, disallow anyone from doing any actual damage for 24 hours, and then beat the raid in an hour? It's backwards. If you contribute tickets to the raid, you should get rewards.

If you spent energy to generate guild coins you should get rewards from the raid
