What tier? T5, T4, T4, repeat
What GP? 117m
What teams? Varies among members, but the established and previously mentioned comps.
motivation? Traya, and heroic rewards, eventually
demotivation? As previously mentioned - it's a big, un-fun, chore. RNG dependence. Ludicrous tenacity. Stingey rewards.
What about the raid did you enjoy? Battling Sion.
Pet dislike? Inability to remove 'Isolated' in phase4. what's up with that?!
I can appreciate the amount of work that went into crafting this raid, and the attachment to the mechanics that is probably felt by the devs and strategists. And yes, it's deviously difficult and defies any autoing - clear goals during development. But what it has been most successful in has been fracturing guilds, especially guilds that are non-homogenous in member/roster strength. I think this is a big negative when considering the long-term health of the community.
To be honest, if I could trade tickets for gear, instead of launching the raid, I would - until heroic runs seemed viable. Activity levels have dipped since it's release. Apathy levels have spiked. The 'job' of being an officer has gotten harder.
