I'm curious, I'm still fairly new to this game and was wondering.Are there any instances/zones that are designed for 2 groups, or are all the raid zones designed for a full compliment of raiders?It really would be nice to see a few zones that can be raided by 12 people, instead of 24.If there are any, and I've just somehow missed em, can someone list them please?Thanks everyone for your responses.

Thanks for the link, much appreciated.It seems that there isn't really any Epic x2 content for T8 then.  It sure would be nice if some was added.

The "casual contested" should have been x2 mobs. Making them x4 mobs, when a larger amount of casual guilds can't field a x4 raid, was foolish imo.

While I don't really consider it foolish, it would be nice if they added some content that people in smaller guilds could have a chance at.  A few additional contested mobs would be great, as well as an instance or two that is epic x2.

I'd like to see some x2 instances as well.

<p>Over the years, I've watched most x2 raid mobs sit untouched.  They've never been really popular.  Probably why you don't seem them much anymore.</p>

There is an epic x2 raid in Splitpaw . . . it was rarely used.

They should simply scale up the guild raids to level 80. A solid x2 instance would also be nice.

Thanks for the responses guys.Was mostly looking for T8 info for the most part, but hearing about these lower lvl ones is nice too.

x2 content for level 80's1. KoS Raid zones are all doable with 12 80's, some EoF raid mobs as well.2. RoK Contested at release was one groupable by some, certainly 2 groupable by a fair number more, though this might get tuned, not sure.My personal recommendation is, make an alliance with a similar sized guild, or all recruit into a larger one where you can all be a clique of a larger guild rather than a smaller ineffective one.$0.02

Dang..  quite a bit there actually. Would love to get people to get together and do them at all levels.
