<p>Before I begin, I'm one of the raid leaders for a progression guild where in we're slowly working our way through content, level locking to the appropriate lvls for said content (lvl 50 for tier 5, lvl 60 for tier 6, etc). We want to do this so any replies complaining of this will be summarily ignored.</p><p>Issue: Older raid zones that are splitting our groups into different variations of the instances. And, due to failure lockout timers, we cannot try again for another 12+ hours.</p><p>Zones Happening: Cove of Decay: Epic Angler, Echos in Time: Epic, and Firemyst Gully: Vanudozalon's Lair. I think this may be possible in most of the zones used for multiple instances.</p><p>Details: Usually we can muster about 2 groups for doing older content, which can be rough with just that against 4x content. So, we get to the zone in, say Cove of Decay: Epic Angler, all talk to the npc there, and we zone in. Well, group 1 is in one instance of CoD:EA while group 2 is in another instance of CoD:EA.</p><p>Troubleshooting:</p><ul><li>We've tried using Call of the Veteran from the 2nd instance to the first instance, but I presume the lockout timer is preventing this as 'you do not meet the requirements' is the error.</li><li>We've tried it such that the raid leader is the one to zone us in, thinking it may have been that a raid member doing it caused the issue.</li></ul><p>Pending Troubleshooting:</p><ul><li>As these are all group zone in instances, aka they pull the entire raid into the zone, we cannot zone in one group at a time. So I was pondering having the 2nd group not in the outside zone (ex, Thundering Steppes for Epic Angler) and trying to zone in just group 1 first, but this may or may not work for several reasons (not enough folks in the raid have the flag, or it might pull in folks from outside the zone) </li><li>Similar to above, but having the 2nd group join the raid after the first zones in, they having them hail the npc and zone in as a group.</li></ul><p>Either way, this bug is annoying and preventing us from accessing lower tier content with the group setup as defined by the content design. I'd really prefer not to do this content with mentored characters. Does anyone have any ideas or solutions?</p><p>Dedith - lvl 50 Guardian</p>
