It should be every 5% not every 2%
May I ask why? It's a lower add than the original one which teams were surviving, so this add will not be as much of a hard line as many seem to think.
By teams, you mean Kylo right? Maybe there were some Rey teams out there that could get above 20% if insane RNG, but there certainly aren't any other teams that get close.
Saying that "it's a lower add than the original" is completely wrong, Since it is 20% at 2%, then 60% at 4%, as soon as you hit the 6% mark it is 120%, you are over the first 'old' value of 75%, then it becomes 200% at 8% and finally 300% at 10% done which is the same as the previous final 20% remaining.
If you apply this scaling to a 5% then it is only once you hit 15% that this becomes harder than the previous 20% value
As a lot of teams can do around 5-8% in the first 3 phases, with the current changes, these scores will no longer happen due to these increased speed and damage from Rancor and will require a lot more teams from a lot more members, let alone the teams doing more than 10-14%. You already see what the Rancor does in the last phase with 100% speed and offense, there are like no teams getting above 4% there. Yes this change means more teams can be used in the last phase for Rancor to make that slightly easier (no need to save rebels or Malak to do 0.2-0.4% damage), but overall the difficulty is made incredibly harder.
Also if you watch the video of Kylo soloing the phase 1 (please note this is the only phase that can be soloed anyway) you will see that he keeps going for the adds until the siphon is really high, and the boss is still at 98.13% before he starts doing all the swipes, then gets to 82.10% for the final swipe before ultimate, uses it at 71.61% and is immune to damage and kills the boss before coming out of it, so the changes applied here are negligible, you just time your ult and you can do a lot of damage still.
p.s. It is funny you mention your guild has about 25 people contributing, maybe that was because after 25 the rewards get even less, and certainly after 40 it's hardly worth the time to even try to hit as you get crappy 1 relic material. Why bother trying to contribute if you know you can't get into top 25 if it doesn't make a difference to the result.
