<p>Lately Ive been noticing the Setup for raids Becomming the Same, It is effective, but its boring and leaves alot of classes and content out of it, Raiding Should be more then just bringing a Group of people into a zone, What if the raid had to Split into 4 groups at some point? The casual raid setup is Forgotten, Classes are made useful again, its just not follow a step of rules, Or? What if a group had to split up where 2 groups go kill the x4 and the other 2 groups have to kill the x2s in different areas of the zones?   It just leaves more Fun and Variety, an example, A Zone like Mistmoore Castle, But you have to have one group Attacking from the Catacombs while the other 3 hold off the front gate, Waves of epic x3 mobs attack until that 1 group does its job and the other 3 are able to advance!</p><p>I know this is Just a game, but In real life, Raids never Go As planned, Things happen, and Some people have to split up and make up for the damage, some people just like being depended upon, some people are lazy and prefere the easy choice, but some times the easy choice shouldnt always be an option, there should always be alternate things to do to kill something.</p><p>- Just a little food for thought -</p>

Sort of reminds me of Pedestal of Sky. Now there was a nice, decent fight requiring skill and thought. It was a divide and conquer sort of thing, just not with four groups. If they could make more raids that intelligent instead of the same old bs (aoe, knockback, power drain and memwipe back in my raiding days), raids would be more fun. No more cookie cutter raids plzkthxbai.

They did this sort of thing in Anvilpaw's Grotto iirc. I'm not sure why they stopped. It was a lot of fun.
