Tank takedown ( Merged thread)

Now I know why this thing was delayed since August, the devs finally finished their first normal raid.

@Maraxus While i think you are technically correct here, you would basically need everyone in the guild to have the same 20 toons maxed out and for no one to make any mistakes and get good RNG, and even then i think it would be a very close thing.

If everyone in the guild can send in 40 maxed toons then it should get completed no problem.

BUT that still leaves the problem that the vast majority of people dont even have 20 fully maxed toons, and the game is not much fun when you HAVE to chase the meta, which is the core problem of the game since the beginning.

And this is exactly why we need tier 5 raid.

Tier 5 with top 3 getting very limited (<2,3) amount of GK shards
Tier 6 with top 10 getting very limited amount of Gk shard and top 3 getting 6 shards
And tier7 as it is...

And putting the 48h limitation for guild hoping back

No more content barrier, everyone has a taste at new content, but better guild a rewarded with better rewards (same as in any game)

That is the solution I hope will be reached

No

My guild can't even do Rancor Heroic, so what do you think I/we think of the new one? :D

Got a feeling this is geared towards lvl 85 with maxed gold gear. My guild is on "normal" and it's very slow going.

If you look at the raid description it says recommended for level 80, gear X characters with full mk 5 mods

After abandoning the heroic at about 80% left of P3, we've opened a normal and have just about made it to P3 after 1 reset. We are now looking to merge with another guild to get MC1 (our first guild) strong enough to do a heroic. If you're interested, please PM me.

scuba so it would seem that a guild that can go to 80% left of p3 is able to go to p3 after 1 reset... Doesn't seem too bad at all then .

T6 does therefore look in line with t7 (easier though since u get the resets)

But that doesn't make me stop thinking there should also be t5. It just makes me think t6 is not **** compared to t7

That is pretty good. I agree maybe still need a lower tier.

@Maraxus

I feel like we actually need 4 tiers, not 3, to get a majority of the player base. Basically, Easy tier for public completely unorganized possibly underleveled guilds, Flexible (between easy and normal) for organized but smaller guilds, Normal for organized level appropriate guilds, and Heroic for organized level appropriate p2p (currently, until the rest level up and it becomes accessible to smaller rosters with higher levels). With rewards scaling from Easy at the low end -> Flex -> Normal -> Heroic.

Lol... maybe you'll find it easier and more enjoyable?

What people don't seem to realize is that the vast majority of guilds don't have 50/50 level 80 members that can solo heroic. I'm fine with the raid being hard for those T7 guilds, but almost every guild doesn't go check the forums, have their guild filled, and have a bunch of great players. All the lower guilds are completely alienated by this, and I just still don't understand why they didn't add any lower tiers for guilds that won't be able to beat this in a month.

For all of the people saying that it is fine, you do realize that 99% of guilds don't have 50 active members with 5 maxed teams? I've been saying it a bunch, the raid shouldn't last a day, but it shouldn't take a month for many guilds. The raid shouldn't be "end-game content", because that just turns off every new player, or anyone playing for less than like 6 months. The higher tiers should require a high commitment, but there should be lower tiers so people can actually participate in the famous raid that was delayed for months, causing the holding back of major needed reworks like Boba, Maul, etc., and new events. We waited way too long for something that only the very best guilds can even reasonably compete in. Not every guild is filled and maxed out, and we shouldn't try to make people leave lower guilds, instead of helping them.
