URGENT Raid Adjustment

100% yes. If it's the only thing I have to worry about at a time, I don't mind having to repeat a battle two or at most three times because I made a wrong move or got a single bad instance of RNG. I do mind having to repeat a battle over a dozen times because of ridiculous RNG throughout the entire battle, ridiculously overpowered enemy abilities, and ridiculously underwhelming player modifiers. Especially when we also have to worry about several other events running at the same time.

I just can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to next week, what with Conquest, TB, the raid (I just checked, we'll have enough tickets to be able to launch it exactly on Monday), and the final attack round of this GAC season (on Monday). And just in case it wasn't obvious, I was being sarcastic with that sentence. A lot of my guildmates and I refer to it as Hell week.

Boy, do I miss the days of the Sith Raid. Yes, it was more a matter of competing with your guildmates for better individual rewards than of working together to get good guild rewards (the only true good thing about this new system), BUT you could theory craft as much as you want, as opposed to having to use the exact same teams and strategies every week, the difficulty properly tuned so that the raid was challenging yet manageable, and the progress you made as you upgraded your teams was much more noticeable. As an example, take the Heroic tier of the Sith Raid, if you went in with a G12 JTR team, you would be able to score a few points, but if you went in with a R5+ team, you would be making a lot more progress, simply because there were no additional modifiers and therefore no additional RNG that came with gearing up your toons. The only changes in difficulty from Tier 1 to Tier 2 and so on were how much health, and, to a lesser extent, damage, speed and maybe tenacity the enemies had. And even then, as I said, the more you upgrade your team, the less those increases matter. Meanwhile, especially in the case with the Naboo raid, the difficulty increase from one tier to the next is a lot more noticeable in all regards (health, speed, damage, tenacity, defense, critical avoidance, additional mechanics, oh brother what else), while the player (tier and faction/hero) bonuses do practically nothing to actually balance it out. Just look at the hero bonuses for this raid, they're downright embarassing compared to those in the Krayt raid.
