Re-design raids

I know there is a lot of raiders and history out there, so I’m sure the majority will disagree with me… but I think in theory this makes sense.

With the huge group massive raid, I feel like it was initially developed to embolden that “Warcraft” feel. The huge battle field filled with fighters fighting something…

But in WoW, your a hero. Not a regular solider. It would only take a small group of heros to kill any monster imo. I feel like raids should be similiar to FFXIV in that, 8 people is all you need (I’m not a fan of ffxiv mechanics personally, so I would opt for mythic raid mechanics designed for 8 people.)

And… besides this… having 25 heros is just cheeky. It really devalues a hero if you need so many to take down a monster.

I just feel like this would fit the concept of the game more imo! We’re heros after all, and not conscripts or regular soldiers or something

No thanks. Go play ff14 and let those of us who like mythic raiding enjoy our content.

Other than LFR, there is no raid difficulty that requires 25 players. Mythic requires 20, but Normal and Heroic scale from 10-30.

oh really? 20 people for mythic? I didnt know that.

opinion still stands but I appreciate the correction.

You are free to play normal/heroic with 10 people, no need to change the game to make it more like FF.

I could be down for 10! I think thats cool. would probably raid again if that was the main content and style of raid playing

normal and heroic are the main content.

Mythic are for a very few select players.

We need changes to raiding for years…Mythic should be flexible for everyone after RWF or some sort of change…

I don’t know if this data is accuarate but Raider IO has 1651 guilds that killed Sarkareth Mythic compared to 12664 guilds that killed it on Heroic…That’s only 13.04% of guilds that killed it on heroic manage to kill it on Mythic too.

I don’t say every guild killing it on Heroic should be able to do the same on Mythic but there’s a massive gap between Heroic and Mythic just because of the 20 Man logistic.

I’d be one of those mythic guys for sure… it gives the best drops and hardest level of play. I like that… I just dont like the current style of it so I dont participate.

I would say that your opinion is flawed.

As player characters, we would have pretty much lost every raid boss fight we have done if we attempted it on our own. In fact, in the ICC Lich King fight and Antorus Argus fights we literally die and have to be saved. Most other fights we utilize borrowed power or NPC intervention (although it is often in the background) to overcome our enemies. Off the top of my head, I can’t think of an actual raid final boss fight that did not include some type of NPC assistance.

TLDR; we are not as strong as you think we are.

Kind of hard to participate in the content as a lvl 60.

Also not sure how good you think you’d be without first showing us that you are indeed,

that good.

I just push keys. and yeah obviously not on this character. I’ve done all of the ultimate raids on ffxiv though

I see your point of view but my opinion still stands. I think a small group of heros should take out most of everything. An army of heros is just cheeky… a 20-25 man raid is like a military unit they should all be wearing the same uniform at that point.

Then you have a lot to learn before mythic raiding.

The skill from one game does not exactly transfer to the other.

Good luck on your journey to mythic raiding.

Thanks for the offer but I’m not interested in mythic raiding. I may if it was re-designed.

like did you not even read my post lol

I did.

They aren’t going to redesign it for an ffxiv fanboy though.

You have 2 other options.

I’m not a ffxiv fanboy. I only play wow and push keys.

Why do you keep ignoring the fact that you can actually do what you are requesting? Make a guild and say you only want to raid with 10 people, done.

I dont understand the need for people to change the game for no real reason, when they already have a solution to their “problem” in game.

Wanting to change the game to be identical to said game.

Could’ve fooled me.
