Is there any specific reason for the content release x and y time after a raid clear? With this stone age old content I wouldn't expect the raids to last even a day after release.

Congratulations to the guilds that already cleared MC, that was quick!

Because otherwise we end up with a Feenix timeline where zero of the Day 1 players still play, and we raid BWL for 1.5 years and everyone has full BiS gear on their 2nd alt.

I see that point, but on the other hand we'll have full T3 players boosting people through lower tier content very soon, as seen currently on Feenix as well.

Would be more interesting if it was based on a number of guilds rather than just 1.

I'm sorry but this is flat out wrong.

Up until Sunwell, no guild raided "crazy" hours, the top guild then Nihilium, didn't start until 5pm, then raided till around 12-1am (if that). Yes, these are still crazy hours, but people still went to their daytime job (if they had one, that slacker Kungen didn't ;) ).

SK Gaming changed that in Sunwell, by raiding all day and all night.

These days, the top guilds put crazy effort into world firsts, Method for example raided 15 hours a day for 2 weeks to get their Blackhand kill, that's insane hours.


I think you're underestimating one single aspect that is remiss from your comparison : 40 people.

T3 GDKPs did not start for a few years post warsong launch. Guilds will not host carry pugs in raids unless they have no more content to clear for a long time.

Are you someone from <NOPE>? I think it's great you guys don't take yourself so seriously and can poke fun at the little mistakes! I don't know where that <ELITE GUILD> thing came from but it's pretty funny, nice video!
